AI Jobs still being purged from catalog before expected

[Brock Palen]

Still having problems where clients using AI having their Virtual Fulls getting blown away before they should be. I assume this is a configuration error but cannot figure out why.


Symptoms are run Consolidate job, two VirtualFulls jobs run, one runs, the next one runs and finds ‘all records on volume purged recycling’ but why was the first job get purged it just ran before the second job! I keep losing fulls and having to do new full’s and having clients not protected.

Two VirtualFulls jobs created from same Consolidate Job
17526
17527 <— This one recycles volumes written by the other.

Second VirtualFull (same client different job)

11-Oct 00:14 myth-dir JobId 17527: There are no more Jobs associated with Volume "AI-Consolidated-1634". Marking it purged.
11-Oct 00:14 myth-dir JobId 17527: All records pruned from Volume "AI-Consolidated-1634"; marking it "Purged"
11-Oct 00:14 myth-dir JobId 17527: Recycled volume "AI-Consolidated-1634”


Why? Why does the second job think AI-Consolidated-1634 has no records? The retention time for the volume is 6 months, and I would expect jobs to be purged over time as they are Consolidated. But I just had 200+ GB full backup get blown away.
