I think part of the problem here is that you appear to have far, far,
far too many volumes allowed in your Pools.  Bacula will always avoid
purging a volume as long as it can avoid it, so, if you have a maximum
of 200 volumes in your Yearly disk pool (which you do), and you run that
job once a year (which one assumes you plan to), then it's going to be
about 200 years before Bacula has to purge a volume from it.
