Looks like you are missing the "Recycle Oldest Volume"
parameter. Also, it might be a good idea to set the maximum volume use
duration to one day (see the docs) and not try limiting it by the
number of jobs.
Also remember that you'll need to "update pool from resource
definition" in bconsole once you've changed the pool resource.
