While taking a look at my storage server I noticed that the numbering
sequence jumped to the 9000 range. These are all file based volumes. I'm
running 2.4.1. and had never observed this behavior before with 2.2.x. 

Here's an ls of the volumes:

Can anyone tell me why the numbering sequence would jump like this?

The pool is defined as such:

Pool {
 Name = "BP 06 UWSP Workstation"
 Pool Type = Backup
 Recycle = yes
 AutoPrune = no
 Volume Retention = 1825 days
 Maximum Volume Bytes = 1000000000
 Label Format = BP-06-UWSP-Workstation-
 Maximum Volumes = 1600
}

Is this something that could come back to cause me grief in the future? All
of my other storage daemons start at 0 and increment up to the maximum
number of volumes. At this point I would not expect a number greater that
1600.

Thanks,

Brian Kelly
