I'm currently using disks as media, with 21 total in my pool.
I had some network/config issues, and my volumes have gotten out of order.  For example, the order is 1,2,6,7,8..... with 3,4,5 set to expire much later, therefore not getting used until later.
I'd like to force #3 to be used once 2 is done.  >>From what I read, if I simply "Purge" that volume, it will be used the next time bacula needs a volume.  So, if I wait until 2 has finished for the run, then purge #3, will that cause #3 to be used the next day/run?
I just wanted to verify this was correct before purging.
Also, what is the best way to purge?  It looks pretty easy in bat.

Thanks!
