Ok, I have a question about tape recycling and rotation. I have 9 tapes in a rotation. Each tape has a retention period of 2 months. The tapes are switched out when they are full. When I get to tape 9 and bacula then wants to goto the next available "appendable" volume, which should be tapes 1-3 or so, when I pop in tape 1, shouldn't bacula just write over the data that is on that tape as if the tape where a new unused tape? And shouldn't that tape have a status of "recycle" or "appendable" or something when its retention period is over? I'm having some issues with recycled tapes not filling up with the same amount of data as before. They aren't even filling up with the "native" amount of data (uncompressed). I'd appreciate any assistance.
