Hello,

I have done several tests and I don't understand well the recycling to the 
Scratch pool.
According to the documentation and my tests, the recycling occurs only when a 
job
  needs a tape and there is no one appendable in the pool. In this case, it will
  try to recycle a tape (from the same pool only !)
I have never succeeded to have a tape recycled in the Scratch pool when all the 
retention periods
  had elapsed.
Or maybe something is wrong with my configuration ?

If for instance I have several tapes in a pool which are not Append and for 
which the
  retention periods (files/jobs/volumes) have elapsed, they will not be 
automatically
  recycled in the Scratch pool, to be reused by a job in another pool.

Thx for your explanations !
