Hi,

In your pool, you have "Maximum Volume Jobs = 2". I suppose you put the backup 
of catalog on tape every day ? 
With the directive, your volume should be "Used" after the daily backup cycle.

Did you label your volume with the directive "Maximum Volume Jobs = 2" set ? 
You can check it with llist media (llist with two "l") and look at the Maximum 
Volume Jobs line. You can update this with the "update" command.

Hope that help.
Pierre
