Hi,

This is bacula 5.0.3:

I have Pools set to the following:

Pool {
   Name = workstation1
   Use Volume Once = yes
   Pool Type = Backup
   LabelFormat = "workstation1-"
   AutoPrune = yes
   Volume Retention = 60d
   Maximum Volumes = 60
   Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
   Recycle = yes
}

I now have an intervention message that says:

25-Feb 12:53 workstation1-sd JobId 553: Job 
Backup-Client-workstation1.2011-02-24_05.53.25_04 is waiting. Cannot find any 
appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
     Storage:      "DeviceName-workstation1" (/disk1/bacula)
     Pool:         workstation1
     Media type:   MediaType-workstation1

I look and there are indeed 60 Volumes, I had assumed they would begin to 
recycle but not sure
what that means at this point and have seen various discussions that are not 
clear to me. My questions
are:

1. What would I need to do to get this backup to "work/backup"?
2. What could I do so that in the future when 60 Volumes is reached Volumes and 
Disk
Space start to "recycle"?

Thank you in advance,
Randy
