 Automatic recycling of Volumes is performed by Bacula only when it wants a
 new Volume and no appendable Volumes are available in the Pool. It will then
-search the Pool for any Volumes with the {\bf Recycle} flag set and whose
-Volume Status is {\bf Full}. At that point, the recycling occurs in two steps.
-The first is that the Catalog for a Volume must be purged of all Jobs and
-Files contained on that Volume, and the second step is the actual recycling of
-the Volume. The Volume will be purged if the VolumeRetention period has
-expired. When a Volume is marked as Purged, it means that no Catalog records
-reference that Volume, and the Volume can be recycled. Until recycling
-actually occurs, the Volume data remains intact. If no Volumes can be found
-for recycling for any of the reasons stated above, Bacula will request
-operator intervention (i.e. it will ask you to label a new volume).

 A key point mentioned above, that can be a source of frustration, is that Bacula
 will only recycle purged Volumes if there is no other appendable Volume
