Seems bareos stopped at some point using the newly manually created volume
and does not create new volumes as needed.
What do I need to do to restore the volumes creations?
bareos-sd JobId 666: Job thclpcvprox03_job_D.2023-11-09_21.00.00_47 is
waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
Storage: "FileStorage" (/var/lib/bareos/storage)
Pool: DailyFullCyclePool
Media type: File
