Hi Bruno,

Thanks for your example but somehow I am not sure about the "Maximum Volumes = 
1" parameter. If I understand correctly this parameter it means I would have 
only one single volume or file respectively in my pool? 

Because I am using the default config of bareos with 3 pools: Full, Incremental 
and Differential and having only one single file does not make sense.

Regards
John
