If you are running bacula 2.2.x , bacula will purge the volumes only if absoulte necessary. With bacula < 2.2.x you were able to 'trigger' pruning with the 'status dir' command. In 2.2.x this is not possible anymore. If you've set retention times and other relevant settings correct bacula should recycle the volumes when needed and no other volume is available.
