Yes one tape is a volume, a volume can hold many jobs you can list all jobs on 
a volume with

list jobs volume=volname

I would delete Maximum Volume Jobs   completely and leave it the default, 

Also then delete the volume and start over.  Often (been a while my setup 
currently works)  volumes when labeled get values from the pool and do not 
update when the pool value changes.

list volumes pool=wiki-pl

Or for more details

llist volume=volname

Should show things like retention values,  and they might not match the current 
pool values.  If you start over and relabel the tape you won’t have worries.
