I have a backup that runs weekly backups for one of the directives in my 
bacula-dir.conf file.

The problem is the volumes are supposed to expire after 7 days and be recycled. 
 Here is the relevant parts of my conf file. 

Client {
  Name = xxxx-fd
  Address = xxxx.xxxx.xxx
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = "xxxx"
  File Retention = 7 days             # 7 days
  Job Retention = 14 days             # six months
  AutoPrune = yes                     # Prune expired Jobs/Files
}


Pool {
  Name = Windows
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  LabelFormat = WinVol
  Volume Retention = 7 days
}


Since this goes to a disk pool, why aren't the volumes recycling on the 7th 
day?  I'm running out of disk space every week and find myself having to 
recycle the volumes manually.
