the question I was originally asking is whether the volume is/will be
recycled when it's marked as recyclable and there are no more
jobs/files in the catalog which reference the volume. i.e., whether
volume recycling also happens if Auto Prune is set to "no" on the Pool
resource.

- From the answers I got so far (and from what I read in/how I
understood the documentation), I thought that it does not (so that you
explicitly have to enable Auto Prune on the Pool resource and set up
the corresponding volume retention time to be the maximum of the
job/file retention times), but from what I gather from that statement,
it should be recycled anyway, if it's set to recyclable and there are
no more jobs/files left referencing it and the volume retention time
is set appropriately short. Is that true?
