I went to the section on auto labeling. I am a bit confused when I get to this 
sentence " Automatic Volume labeling is enabled by making a change to both the 
Pool resource (Director) and to the Device resource (Storage daemon) shown 
above." Which two files are they? I changed /bacula/bin/bacula-dir-conf to say:

Pool {
  Name = "Tape Backups Pool - weekly"
  Pool Type = Backup
  Volume Retention = 30 days
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
 #  Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
  Use Volume Once = yes
  LabelFormat = "Vol"
}

But I can't tell what else (or where) I should change.

Thanks for all your help!

Sorry it looks like a single drive. Then you need to label some tapes
