Probably a failure when that tape was last written which prevented the catalog update to work. Might have been a SD, DIR, or database issue, for example. > Also, I have 18 volumes in my catalog (Full-Tape-0001 to > Full-Tape-0018), and today Bacula had to start from Full-Tape-0001 again > (recycling). > My tapes were written sequentially (from Full-Tape-0001 to > Full-Tape-0018), but I noticed that Bacula pruned only volumes > Full-Tape-0001, Full-Tape-0004, Full-Tape-0008, Full-Tape-0010.

Hard to tell without knowledge of your retention times and pools and so on. If you query the tape contents, i.e. list the jobs stord on the tapes not pruned, are they actually unused? Anyway, I found that Bacula usually handles recycling correctly, even if I don't care which tapes to recycle when.
