Hi! Kevin ..

What value of "Volume Use Duration" you think that I put to recycle 
automatically in 6 days ?

Thanks.

Bacula will never recycle a tape that has the Append status. It needs
to be Full or Used. And only after it becomes Full or Used does the
Volume Retention period start. To get the tape to become Used you need
to use

volume use duration or maximum volume jobs.
