There is no counter. It finds the maximum mediaid of all the volumes
that exist in the database. I believe the only way to reset this
counter is to delete all of your media in every pool.


Here is some info on why this is so:

BTW, I am going on vacation in 6 hours and will not be back till the
15th or 16th. I am not sure if I will have internet access in during
this time so I probably will not be able to reply again until I
return.
