Hi Bill,
I'm not aware about the previous discussion about enabled/disabled volumes.
But talking about this post, why do you have to put them disabled if you
use them later? Shouldn't volumes be disabled just if they never will be
used again? Retention periods and the other directives for recycling are
not enough?
Regards,
Ana
