Hi!

Since "1 month" or "30 days" will be translated to seconds when it  
comes to the database field, i'm not sure if it's possible to cycle  
tapes based on "month".

Since you can do things like "1st monday" inside the scheduler, you  
could probably find a way to use that, instead of VolumeUseDuration.  
However, i would not recommend to use one tape for a complete month,  
because if you made backups for 3 or 4 weeks and then your drive  
malfunctions, your backups might get trashed all at once.

Cheers
Ariano
