Pool { Name = Weekly Pool Type = Backup Storage = LTO Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Use Duration = 72h Volume Retention = 1 months } the LTO is only used on a weekly/monthly basis. The backup process usually takes 24 to 48 hours. If I remove the tape, and do a "update slots scan" or "update slots" in bconsole, the media is still flagged "inchanger 1". this is an issue aswell, but I can live with that, since tapes are back in the library prior to the Volume Retention.
