I read up the console manual on the purge command and also looked at help purge.
The tried:
(e) purge action=truncate allpools storage=unraid-tier1-storage
when asked for a pool I selected a small one that is the on disk and I
get a list of 2 volumes. When entering a media id I get this:
Enter a Volume name or *MediaId: 46
sql_get.c:1337 Media record for Volume name "46" not found.
Sounds kinda wrong to me, as it was listing this volume right beforehand.
What am I doing wrong?
