I just went through this myself. It actually is behaving as documented.
Under the section on LabelFormat, it states:
"If no variable expansion characters are found in the string, the
Volume name will be formed from the format string appended with the
number of volumes in the pool plus one, which will be edited as four
digits with leading zeros."
What isn't explicitly stated is that if any other variable expansion has
taken place, then the volume numbers are not appended.
You can get around this by using the NumVols variable. For your format,
you will probably want something like this:
LabelFormat = "${Client}_Full-${NumVols:p/4/0/r}"
The NumVols gives you the count of the volumes currently in the pool.
The 'p' command says to pad the variable to be at least 4 characters,
using '0' as the padding character, and pad to the right.
You could also use this format: "${Client}_${Level}-${NumVols:p/4/0/r}"
That way the level is also determined at run time.
