Good afternoon ! I don’t understand why files located in different folders 
should have different “Media Type”? This is somehow not logical... These 
are still the same files... I don't think it's that hard to make changes to 
your wonderful Bareos program. 
https://docs.bareos.org/bareos-22/DeveloperGuide/catalog.html In your 
"Media (Volume)" table you also have the fields "PoolId" and "StorageId" by 
which you can accurately determine which "Storage Device" you should 
contact for the next volume. Please correct me, I think it won't take much 
time. Thank you.
