Radosław, you have my attention.

Could you elaborate more on "you can use Admin job which will change volume 
status when it is not available in tape library" 
What is an admin job?  
How does one create a job to change volume status when a tape is not available?
I assume this involves some sql query?

Hello,

2012/3/29 Conrad Lawes <CLawes AT navtech DOT aero<mailto:CLawes AT navtech DOT 
aero>>

I want Bacula to automatically  use another tape after a given amount of time 
if the preferred "Append" tape is not available .


First of all, there is a "Used" status which is more appropriate then "Full". 
"Full" means no more data could be physically written to archive media.

Then you can use "Volume usage duration" if you want to automatically change a 
volume status after a specified amount of time or you can use Admin job which 
will change volume status when it is not available in tape library.
