So I had a very careful look through the configuration files and the
list of existing volumes and noticed that the media type of the prior
volumes in the pool was 'File1', whereas the current re-constructed
configuration files listed that pool as having volumes of type 'File'.
After changing the type of 'File' to 'File1' in the director
configuration and storage configuration, it is correctly finding the
existing purged volumes and recycling them.
So bacula requires the same Media Type to correctly recycle, which I
guess makes sense.
cheers,
Peter

Are the oldest volumes *actually fully purged*?
Do you have Recycle Oldest Volume enabled?
(Actually, I don't recycle disk volumes. I delete them on purge and
create new ones as needed. I find it simplifies volume tracking and
makes better use of disk space.) <https://www.postbox-inc.com>
