OK, i suppose you have the (main) pool where the full(s) reside, and the
scratch pool used for incrementals.

But when you consolidate backups, you need at least TWO volumes on main
pool, right? One for reading the old full, one to write the new one.

So still you have a full volume to purge/truncate after a successful
consolidation...
