Hi Bill,
Yes, those must match and if they don't that is reported in the test of
the configuration file.
But what was going on here and a bit more subtle was that the media type
recorded in the database for a volume must match the media type
requested in the configuration files for that volume to be available for
recycling as well.
cheers,
Peter

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.
