Why don't you simple comment out the "Label Format" directive, and see

that the manual needs an update or the DIR behaviour should be changed.
That's basically what I suggested in may last post(s), and I think you
should try that first before you complain again and again.
So tell me, why exactly should LabelFormat control whether or not a tape is
recycled? The error is this:
It might if it is a bug. From your description, that's what I think
might be possible. If it is, you can verify it and report it so that it
can be corrected.
Current Volume "liz5" not acceptable because:
1998 Volume "liz5" status is Full, but should be Append, Purged or
Recycle.
But the media shows this:
+---------+------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+---------------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | VolBytes | VolFiles | VolRetention
| Recycle | Slot | MediaType | LastWritten |
+---------+------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+---------------------+
| 9 | liz5 | Full | 14155350617 | 17 | 7776000
| 1 | 0 | DDS-3 | 2005-06-27 23:12:20 |
| 10 | liz6 | Full | 10000907376 | 12 | 7776000

Ah. Volretention:
7776000/60/60/24=90
seconds - minutes - hours - days.
You've got about three months of retention time, and that period is not
over yet.
And yes, even if the pool definition shows something different this
behaviour is intentional: The pool definition has the defaults, and once
a volume is created the data concerning it can be updated by the
'update' command, not by changes to the pool definition.
And yes, I do know that 'update all volumes from pool' does not seem to
work as advertised.
Arno
And the configuration shows this:
# Tape pool definition
Pool {
Name = Tape
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle
Volumes
Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 1 months # one month
Accept Any Volume = yes # write on any volume in the pool
}
So why isn't this volume being recycled?
