Hi Paride,
Do you have a sample scene with a volume spot light where it looks like in the image attached as a blue sport light.
It seems there is no connection between volume, light, light spot, cone size. Thank you!

Hi coilbook,
You can use the volumetric spotlight or a photometric spotlight that octane now supports.

The photometric spotlight might be currently a bit more noisy than the Octane volumetric spotlight.
This will be improved in a future release.
When starting a new scene, the Octane volumetric spotlight is probably a better choice.
Note that you can have control of the 'hardness' of the light cone (as with the 2 angles of the photometric spotlight hotspot / Falloff),
using a 'Spotlight' map in the Distribution' of the black body emission:
