Hi,

I would like to know how reconfigure my Bacula v11.0.6 to avoid this message 
when I run a job:
10-jun 13:15 myserver-sd JobId 5078: Job BackupCatalog.2022-06-10_13.14.28_06 
is waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
    Storage:      "BaculaBackups" (/backups)
    Pool:         Default
    Media type:   File

In this case, runnig backup is the "BackupCatalog" that has this pool 
configuration:
Pool {
        Name = Default
        Pool Type = Backup
        Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes
        AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
        Volume Retention = 200 days
        LabelFormat = "Catalogo"
        Maximum Volume Jobs = 7
        Maximum Volumes = 4
        Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
        Purge Oldest Volume = yes
        Storage = BackupRAID5
}

Pool "Catalogo" has now four volumes, all of them is "Used" status... but, I 
suppose that when a pool has reached its maximum volume number, Bacula must 
take one of the "used" volume and, then, change to "append" in an automatic 
way, because if I need to do this reconfiguration for each pool, it's hard to 
me because I'm running backups of several servers.

So, if pool is configured with "Recycle = yes" and "AutoPrune = yes" and it is 
only allowed 4 volumes (Maximum Volumes = 4) and "Recycle Oldest Volume = yes" 
with "Purge Oldest Volume = yes" too, why Bacula is waiting for a new 
appendable volume? Would it be automatic?

I'm running backups over a filesystem storage (RAID-5).

Thanks.
