Did you fix the retention period yet?  If it's immediately reusing the
first volume, it probably means your retention is too short.  If you're
trying to use these volumes in daily rotation, then the volume use
duration should be set so that it expires just before the next day's
backup (23 hours being a good number for that), and your retention
period needs to be set such that the first volume becomes available
again just after the last volume is used (for a ten-day rotation, nine
days should be right).

Make sure that after you update the Pool resource, you FIRST update the
Pool from the resource, THEN update ALL of the Volumes from the Pool.
