I am finding that a job is sometimes stalled as no suitable disk volume is
available. Auto create of a new volume is not occurring. When I label a new
volume manually the job proceeds as normal.

When I look at the volume list for the pool, there are indeed no recycle
candidates. I expected that a new volume would be created if the Maximum
Volumes limit specified has not been exceeded.

I thought that the pool def below would do that but I am obviously missing
something.

There are 10 volumes in the pool presently with status "used" or "full" and
all unexpired.

Pool {
  Name = file_archive
  Pool Type = Backup
  Volume Retention = 1 month
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  LabelFormat = archive
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 10G
  Maximum Volumes = 20
  Action On Purge = Truncate
  Volume Use Duration = 14 hours
}

This pool def is one of several similar ones. They all exhibit this
behaviour from time to time.

Regards
Chris Wilkinson
