Thank you Ben.
I applied the changes and I'll monitor the behavior to confirm I did it
right.
If I have mix of recycled volumes and brand new, never used volumes in
Scratch, which ones Bacula will grab first?
I'd really prefer to setup Bacula so it will reuse the old ones instead of
grabbing brand new volumes.
