for
(and use) the oldest tape available for it to recycle. Not create a new
tape.
If I want to add more tapes to the pool, I can choose to do that as meets
my own needs. I don't want Bacula trying to wish new tapes into
existence that I have no intention to purchase.

it working yet, but I wasn't sure if the
scratch pool was one of those Features in the manual, that was not in the
Stable version of the bacula code.

Before I go to all of that trouble, could someone kindly look at the
configuration I posted and tell me what is missing? I'm fairly certain
that it is a configuration problem. I doubt that so many people using it
wouldn't have found this problem before
Volumes
Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 1 months # one month
Accept Any Volume = yes # write on any volume in the pool
}
So why isn't this volume being recycled?

Okay, bacula seems to do two things that I believe are configured to not

Alright people, I seriously need an explanation here.
You have X volumes, which are each retained for Y retention time.
You can add another volume by labelling it.
If no free volume is available, and Recycle is enabled, Bacula should
recycle

1. It isn't recycling a volume that is way past it's retension time
2. It keep creating new volumes that don't exist. I think
