Hello,

I am using bacula 5.0.2 as delivered by Debian packaging system.
This morning I have jobs hanged due to no appendable volume in the pool.
the job and file retention for the jobs are both of 1 month. The Volume retention for all volumes in the pool is 23 days.
All volumes in the pool are marked as Used. However, there id one volume that was last written more than 2 month ago (2011-06-19 15:30:31).

I have tried to query the catalog on found out that no job record were associated with that volume anymore (bconsole / query / 14 / volname)

I have tried pruning the volume by hand using the `prune` command, it shows the correct volume volume retention but prune nothing.
Here is the volume and pool description as shown by `list volume` and `show pool`:

|       8 | hosting_incremental_0002 | Used      |       1 |   426,895,388 |        0 |    1,987,200 |       1 |    0 |         0 | File      | 2011-06-19 15:30:31 |


Pool: name=hosting_Incremental PoolType=Backup
      use_cat=1 use_once=0 cat_files=1
      max_vols=5 auto_prune=1 VolRetention=23 days
      VolUse=7 days  recycle=1 LabelFormat=${Pool:l}_${NumVols:p/4/0/r}
      CleaningPrefix=*None* LabelType=0
      RecyleOldest=1 PurgeOldest=0 ActionOnPurge=0
      MaxVolJobs=0 MaxVolFiles=0 MaxVolBytes=0
      MigTime=0 secs MigHiBytes=0 MigLoBytes=0
      JobRetention=680 years 11 months 21 days 8 hours 21 mins 20 se FileRetention=5 years 1 month 11 days 17 hours 26 mins 8 secs

Note the huge JobRetention in the pool. The job retention is the same in the job description shown in `show job`. I have double checked my config files and found the following:
Client {
  Name = jimbojones-fd
  Address = fqdn-addr
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password ="secret"
  FileRetention = 30 days
  JobRetention = 30 days
}

Does anybody knows why I can't recycle that volume and why I have this strange Jobretention value?
