A volume is set to "Full", if Bareos assumes it is full. A volume can have several limits. Mostly used is MaxVolBytes. Check your limits using "llist volumes" Note: changes to the pool configuration in the configuration file are not automatically applied to existing volumes, only to new onces. Use the update command to apply your pool settings to existing volumes. > > This pool can have max 5 volumes. So when the backup is splitted it > uses 2 of the 5 volumes.

I guess, you want to unset all volume limits and use http://doc.bareos.org/master/html/bareos-manual-main-reference.html#directiveDirPoolVolume%20Use%20Duration = 23h instead, to use a volume only for one day.
