Are you using "Maximum Volumes = " in your Pool Definition. If you are using a hard limit, make sure you have enough volumes. I have a pool definition that looks like the following and it acts as expected. Pool { Name = INCR-Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes Recycle Oldest Volume = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 1 months Accept Any Volume = yes Maximum Volume Jobs = 12 Maximum Volumes = 53 Maximum Volume Bytes = 2147483648 LabelFormat = "INCR-" } ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
