Well, from the docs: "The Volume Retention record defines the length of time that Bacula will guarantee that the Volume is not reused counting from the time the last job stored on the Volume terminated." It also doesn't make sense to recycle as soon as the job no longer exists in the database. I limit the job retention period to keep the database small but I can keep the volumes a lot longer without problem.
