Hey, Denis: the messages are OK. Even if your file and job retention are 
bigger, it doesn't stop Bacula of recycling volumes after Volume Retention ends.

> Volume Retention Time is 12 hours for Incremental, 96 hours for Full.

After that time frame is very likely that your volumes/jobs are being recycled.
