Open a terminal and type the following command as root (or su or sudo):

jmd0 # bacula-dir -t -c /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf
jmd0 #

Then enter a bacula console
jmd0 # bconsole

and
update
select    2: Pool from resource
then select your pool (Backup) and enter.

Here is an example from my home bacula install:

Pool DB record updated from resource.
*update
Update choice:
     1: Volume parameters
     2: Pool from resource
     3: Slots from autochanger
     4: Long term statistics
Choose catalog item to update (1-4): 2
The defined Pool resources are:
     1: Default
     2: Catalogs
     3: Users
     4: Temp
     5: Scratch
Select Pool resource (1-5): 1

Pool DB record updated from resource.

Then after this
update
and select "Volume Parameters"
then select "All Volumes from Pool"
and enter your pool again

or I guess you could have used "All Volumes from all Pools" on the last prompt.

Here is an example of that.
*update
Update choice:
     1: Volume parameters
     2: Pool from resource
     3: Slots from autochanger
     4: Long term statistics
Choose catalog item to update (1-4): 1
Parameters to modify:
     1: Volume Status
     2: Volume Retention Period
     3: Volume Use Duration
     4: Maximum Volume Jobs
     5: Maximum Volume Files
     6: Maximum Volume Bytes
     7: Recycle Flag
     8: Slot
     9: InChanger Flag
    10: Volume Files
    11: Pool
    12: Volume from Pool
    13: All Volumes from Pool
    14: All Volumes from all Pools
    15: Enabled
    16: RecyclePool
    17: Action On Purge
    18: Done
Select parameter to modify (1-18): 13
The defined Pool resources are:
     1: Default
     2: Catalogs
     3: Users
     4: Temp
     5: Scratch
Select Pool resource (1-5): 1
All Volume defaults updated from "Default" Pool record.
