What version of Bacula are you running?
Can you send me the output of "list volumes" command?
I am trying to debug the script and it seems that my output is different then
your output.
I am attaching the sample of "list volumes" command output. First one is the
disk pool and second one is the tape pool, I do not see "Tape:" in the tape
volume.
