Last night I updated a Pool definition to enable "Purge Oldest Volume". This is the only change made to the server in a week or maybe two.
This morning the first backup (which should have purged a volume) failed, with 12-Sep 11:05 backup0-dir: Start Backup JobId 268, Job=client.domain.com.2006-09 12_11.05.00 12-Sep 11:05 backup0-sd: Volume "clients-0006" previously written, moving to end of data. 12-Sep 11:05 backup0-sd: End of Volume "clients-0006" at 0:0 on device "Dev_clients" (/bacula/clients).
