# Default pool definition
Pool {
Name = Default
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically
recycle Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 365 days # one year
Volume Use duration = 23h # Added by me
LabelFormat = "Vol"
}
This is my current pool definition – I’m thinking of changing the
LabelFormat – I didn’t know that I could do fancy stuff like that!

Try post your configuration
My good one is:
Pool {
Name = POOL-log
Use Volume _Once_ = no
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = yes
# Accept Any Volume = yes
Maximum Volume Bytes = 4GB
VolumeRetention = 180d
Recycle = yes
LabelFormat = "DVD-${Year}.${Month}.${Day}-$

I’m
sure that my configuration tells me that the maximum volume size should be 2G –
and for some reason, I’ve noticed volumes that are larger than this by some way
(I spotted a 20G file, I was stunned!)
How
can I force all my volumes to be 2G maximum size, the reason I want this is
because I use rsync to sync my storage daemon data to a second NAS, and I don’t
need for rsync to spend hours reading a 20G files to find that just 50megs has
changed J
