Ok - I'll try and explain more in detail.

I guess I don't understand what you mean by the size of a pool then.  
There is
also Maximum Volume Bytes and the max size of a pool would be that 
multiplied
by Maximum Volumes..

I'm running daily backups and using one volume per day per client. And 
the solution above would work if I would fill
each volume using a specified Max Vol Bytes. But I'm currently using 
one volume per diem and the volume size if
different every day.

Do you mean that Bacula should abort the job if the data won't fit in a
particular volume size even if there are other available volumes in 
the pool?


If the 'imaginary'  pool size limit had not been reached it would run 
even if it would exceed the limit but the following would not run.
I would not want an abort.

What I'm trying to do is to see if there are any options to work with 
pool limits rather than volume limits - as mentioned I'm running
diskbased backups and trying to limit the size per client.

Maybe the Maximum Volumes directive the Pool resource will help?
