Hi!
Thanks for your answer.
Here is the config for this pool:
Pool {
Name = xxx_daily
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle
Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 27 days
Volume Use Duration = 10h
}
Thanks.

Juergen,
I'm not really expert on Volume managing (i'm new on bacula's
world :-$), but it might have some relations about the messages you're
getting about volume purging and recycling time. You should check you
retention periods for volumes, for example.
I'm sure it would be very helpful for anyone having exact notions about
all this if you could provide your config files (specially sections
configuring pools).
Hope this gives you some hints,

We have a problem with Bacula 3.0.2 (Update from 2.x).
Some backups starts normally. Bacula purged and recycled the inserted
tape. Suddenly Bacula says Can not find any appendable volumes.Please
use the label command to create a new volume for
Exactly one hour later, then Bacula automatically turns on with the
backup as if nothing had happened.
At this point, Bacula has already found the right tape and prepared
the tape for the next backup. Why then did he suddenly finds no tape
anymore?
That makes Bacula since the update to version 3.0.2.
