I don't thinky you screwed up anything... the problem is that Bacula does not look ahead in time during a 'sta dir' command. Most of the time, the "*unknown*" volume display is caused by having no volumes available at the time of the display, but later, volumes might get recycled. By the way: Given that Bacula works with an implicit "Accept Any Volume" setting anyway, the exact volume to be used is only partly interesting. Having the pool which will be used displayed would, in many cases, be more informative.
