With the prior code there was the possibility of failures if the user created 
holes in his Volume numbers by deleting them.  The new code assigns a unique 
number.   If you absolutely need sequential volume numbers, then you will 
need to find another method of numbering them -- either do it with Variables, 
Python, or manually (you can pre-label as many volumes as you want).

I personally don't see the problem, since Bacula knows quite well what Volumes 
contain what, and in the prior scheme one was not always guaranteed of having 
sequential volume numbers, though out of sequence numbers only happened when 
you deleted volumes.
