Hello,

Yes, I can see that this would be useful for Disk volumes.  I would prefer to 
call it Relabel After Recycling or something like that.

It is too late to submit for the current voting, but if you want to submit 
something, please follow the procedure at:  www.bacula.org -> Feature 
Requests and please pay particular attention to submitting it with the 
correct formating.

Regards,

Kern
