Hi,
i use two simple usb-disks for backups. Each friday the aktive disk is 
exchanged and put in safe. Alas bacula asks me always to bring the last 
used volume online or label a new one. Labeling a new one solves the 
problem but this is not a good solution, as it involves manual 
interaction and lets the database grow if i got that right.
I tried to use vchanger but after one week i come to the conclusion that 
this certainly great tool ads a complexity i can not handle.
Is there any other solution, e.g. could i "close" a volume using a 
script and then change the disk? Would bacula create silently a new 
volume on the new disk if the last used volume was marked "full" before 
the disk is removed?

Any hints are appreciated
