No, this is not required however changing the pool resource in
bacula-dir.conf file does not (totally?) affect currently labeled
volumes. It is more of a plan for new volumes. That is why I wanted
you to update from pool resource. I put the (totally?) part in there
because I am not sure about the max vol size param. I do know
retention periods are not changed on currently labled volumes if you
reduce the retention time in the pool resource.
Did you execute the update pool from resource command that I suggested?
You can mark volume 4 full or used by the update volume status command
to force the retention period to begin.
