My solution to a similar problem was to write a shell script which
directly changes the volumes' state in the catalog; you just need to
take a look at the catalog schema and write an UPDATE query with the
right set of conditions.

The script is then executed through a RunScript directive in a
high-priority admin job which is scheduled to run before every set of
backup jobs writing to the pool in question.

I realize this might not be the cleanest solution out there, especially
since you must review the script at every catalog schema change; however
it is reasonably simple and, well, It Works For Me (tm).
