Arno,
I checked the n. of jobs with list command and that's correct.
Now, when the volume gets the maximum n. of jobs, it has the content removed
and start from the zero. I would like, in this case, don't use the same volume.
Instead of that, create another one and starts the job, keeping the last
volume.
What could be wrong?
Thanks!
