In fact, my initial configuration was not correct.
The RecyclePool=Scratch directive must be specified in the Scratch pool section.
If I purge a tape, it is automatically moved to the Scratch pool.
But the tape is never moved to the Scratch pool after a retention period.
I have to purge it manually

Nope, this is by design. If you change a pools d
The problem is that the variable RecyclePoolId is not set for the media.
If I execute "update volume" for all the volumes of the pool, the RecyclePoolId
field is well set, and recycling works fine
It seems there is a bug...

I have defined it in the pool
Pool {
Name = System
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 1 days 1 hour # for tests
RecyclePool = Scratch
}
but tapes never go automatically to Scratch pool after the retention period.
I will check source code to understand...

no spare tapes in the pool that the current backup is taking place on,
Bacula will look to see if it can take one from the scratch pool. It
won't look for v
Any explanation on the recycle mechanism is welcome !

Hello,
I have done several tests and I don't understand well the recycling to the
Scratch pool.
According to the documentation and my tests, the recycling occurs only when a
job
needs a tape and there is no one appendable in the pool. In this case, it will
try to recycle a tape (from the sam
