Whenever you edit your Pool definition(s), you need to (in bconsole) issue a reload command, followed by: Update --> Pool from resource --> Choose the pool you modified * repeat that step for each pool you modified Next, if you have modified any pools that already have volumes in them you need to also modify the volumes that are in those pools. In bconsole do this: update --> Volume parameters --> All Volumes from all pools then, in bconsole run: list media and verify that all of your media in each pool now has the correct retention periods. Also pay careful attention to what John and Uwe said about when the retention period begins, and the "Maximum Volume Bytes" and "Maximum Volumes" parameters in your pool definitions to keep your hard drive from filling. At this point, with a 100% full drive, you will have to (in bconsole) cancel any running jobs, delete some volumes, and then rm them them from the hard drive. Next, edit your pool definitions - adding in the two "maximum" parameters - then follow the directions regarding reloading and updating listed above to get you back on track.
