Mr. Hans,
 
I get this message "Cannot find any appendable volumes" in my file based
storage.

This is pretty obvious but it's good to make sure: 1. Are you submitting jobs to the same pool that you have the appendable volumes? 2. Do you have Appendable volumes in this pool?
 
After adding a label and running a job it writes:

22-Sep 14:27 bohr-dir JobId 93031: Begin pruning Jobs older than 6 months .
22-Sep 14:27 bohr-dir JobId 93031: No Jobs found to prune.
22-Sep 14:27 bohr-dir JobId 93031: Begin pruning Files.
22-Sep 14:27 bohr-dir JobId 93031: No Files found to prune.

(why does it says 6 months?)

This message concerns another kind of retention that just affect Bacula Catalog Indexes. Don't confuse it with the volume retention.
 
In the Pool I have:

Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Maximum Volume Bytes = 5368709120
Volume Retention = 2 weeks
Maximum Volumes = 1520
#Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
#Action On Purge = Truncate

I tried to add the last two options but it did not change anything.

I have also manually tried to prune, purge and delete unused volumes
without success.

Anyhow, "list media pool=pool_name" output and the full job log are necessary to provide a diagnosis.

Regards,
