Well, I thought I had ... Relevant sections of bacula-dir.conf:

Job {
  Name = "BackupHome"
  Type = "Backup"
  Level = "Full"
  Client = "Server-fd"
  FileSet = "Home"
  Storage = "DLT-V4"
  Pool = "AC-recycle"
  Priority = "10"
  Messages = Standard
  Schedule = "DailyCycle"
}

Pool {
  Name = "AC-recycle"
  PoolType = "Backup"
  Recycle = "yes"
  AutoPrune = "yes"
  VolumeRetention = 0 days
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 148118648832
  Recycle Current Volume = "yes"
  LabelFormat = "Recycle-"
}

What am I missing or doing wrong???

Thanks again,
Andy
