Is there a way to do "update all volumes from pool" specifying the pool without 
being prompted to use the menu to select the operation?

i.e.  I want to update the retention period of all volumes in the Archive pool 
so I'd like to do something like this:  

        update all volumes from pool pool=Archive

or

        update all volumes from pool=Archive

Or am I forced to interactively select from the menu?

There isn't much in the docs about alternative update syntaxes.  The only entry 
in the console operators guide bacula_console.pdf is the command is update and 
it mentions "update volume from pool" in a separate paragraph.  Why aren't all 
the possible permutations of update listed as arguments?  The following manual 
entry does not seem to indicate there are other keywords to the update command 
(no indication "update from" is valid), but further down it mentions "All 
Volumes from Pool" but no examples.

        The following main keywords may be specified:
        media, volume, pool, slots, stats

        ....

        For Volume from Pool, All Volumes from Pool and All Volumes from all 
Pools, the follow-
        ing values are updated from the Pool record: Recycle, RecyclePool, 
VolRetention, VolUseDuration,
        MaxVolJobs, MaxVolFiles, and MaxVolBytes. (RecyclePool feature is 
available with bacula 2.1.4 or
        higher.)

        The full form of the update command with all command line arguments is:
        update volume=xxx pool=yyy slots volstatus=xxx VolRetention=ddd
        VolUse=ddd MaxVolJobs=nnn MaxVolBytes=nnn Recycle=yes|no        
        slot=nnn enabled=n recyclepool=zzz
