My advice is to use 3 pools:
- pool1 for months 1,4,7,10
- pool2 for months 2,5,8,11
- pool3 for months 3,6,9,12
This would be a fool-safe setup. If you are absolutely sure you'll always
burn the volumes to bluerays during the following month, or at least
manually mark the volumes "used" before that month ends, then 2 pools would
be enough. Otherwise there would be a problem because months have different
amount of days: for example, in 2-volume setup on the 1st of March the
second volume that might be created only on the last day of January would
still be "underage" and Bacula would use it for a couple of days before
creating another one.
