It uses 50 MB chunks, and totally different file name for the archives
than configured.

When Bacula reaches volume size limit then sets volume status to Used and you should get appropriate information in Job messages. Bacula sets volume name during volume creation and do not change it later. During new volume creation you should get appropriate information in Job messages. Could you show your Job messages for that?

During new volume creation volume inherit its parameters from Pool resource and Bacula do not change it even you update a Pool resource configuration. If you want to update already available volume parameters you have to update it by hand with update volume command (it is possible to update all volumes in Pool in batch, there is an option for that). You can list volume parameters with llist volume command.

Bacula creates new volumes only when it cannot find already available volumes with Append, Recycle or Purge status and cannot get ready volumes after recycling (volumes with Purge status after recycling). New volume is created as a last stand.
