Hi Kern,
Sorry I have been a bit slow responding. Day job has been getting the
way.
The simplest way for me to reproduce this is to just run by admin job
with the prune and truncate commands in it twice in a row from bconsole.
Running the job the first time I get

So in this case, DiffPool-0046 and IncPool-0051 are "truncated" twice.
I noticed this on a system that has quit a few more volumes than it
really needs (I will get around to deleting them one day) and the same
volumes are re-truncated every time (once a day) the truncate job is
run.
Let me know if there is any other information that you need.
Thanks
Mike
