No, this was a mistake on my part not properly understanding the Volume Retention Period Directive. I obviously skimmed through that part of the documentation and should have paid closer attention. I'm correcting that error now. Thank you very much for pointing it out. All files are being written

That was why I utilized the Volume Use Duration option. I thought that regardless of disk space, it should mark the volume as Used after the specified time period. Now if I adjust my retention periods to be shorter amounts of time, say 1 day, then the volumes should get recycled after Volume
