I would investigate the size of the volume files directly. Also
remember that changing the pool definitions does not affect already
existing volumes. They will retain their old restrictions unless you
specifically apply the new configuration in bacula using two update
statements.. I do not remember the exact syntax so I will search the
archives for that if you need this.
