Hi All,

I've set bacula up using Josh Fisher's vchanger script.  That all
seems to be working fine.  So I set up a backup schedule using the
default WeeklyCycle schedule, and I set the pools up as follows:

Pool {
        Name = AllIncrementals
        Label Format = "Incrementals"
        Pool Type = Backup
        Recycle = yes
        AutoPrune = yes
        Volume Retention = 7 days
}

Pool {
        Name = AllDifferentials
        Label Format = "Differentials"
        Pool Type = Backup
        Recycle = yes
        AutoPrune = yes
        Volume Retention = 1 week
}

Pool {
        Name = AllFull
        Label Format = "AllFull"
        Pool Type = Backup
        Recycle = yes
        AutoPrune = yes
        Volume Retention = 2 months
}

This seems to be working as I don't see all the Incrementals and
Differentials for the month listed when I ran the bconsole `list
pools` command.  I put in a new disk after the last full backup, and
it ran for most of the schedule doing the incrementals and the
differentials but the problem now is when it was trying to do a full
backup it errors out saying that the hard drive is full.  The total
backup data is less than half the size of the hard drive, so it seems
it's not reusing the old volumes that were created and then expired.
Is there something I'm missing in the pool configuration?

Thanks for any help.
