No, I can't see that either, from what you've provided so far.

No, the pool. From within bconsole, "*delete pool=Catalog".
From "The Pool Resource" of the Bacula User Manual:
Another important aspect of a Pool is that it contains the default attributes
(Maximum Jobs, Retention Period, Recycle flag, ...) that will be given to a
Volume when it is created. This avoids the need for you to answer a large
number of questions when labeling a new Volume. Each of these attributes can
later be changed on a Volume by Volume basis using the update command in the
console program. Note that you must explicitly specify which Pool Bacula is
to use with each Job. Bacula will not automatically search for the correct
Pool.
Most often in Bacula installations all backups for all machines (Clients) go
to a single set of Volumes. In this case, you will probably only use the
Default Pool. If your backup strategy calls for you to mount a different tape
each day, you will probably want to define a separate Pool for each day. For
more information on this subject, please see the Backup Strategies chapter of
this manual.
To use a Pool, there are three distinct steps. First the Pool must be defined
in the Director's configuration file. Then the Pool must be written to the
Catalog database. This is done automatically by the Director each time that
it starts, or alternatively can be done using the create command in the
console program. Finally, if you change the Pool definition in the Director's
configuration file and restart Bacula, the pool will be updated alternatively
you can use the update pool console command to refresh the database image. It
is this database image rather than the Director's resource image that is used
for the default Volume attributes. Note, for the pool to be automatically
created or updated, it must be explicitly referenced by a Job resource.

Try updating/recreating your Catalog pool first and see what happens.
If
that's not successful, then we'll have to dig deeper.
