Has anyone seen this happen? We are at 5.1.1 (server and client) under W2K - our default MC is STANDARD in PS STANDARD which backs up to primary pool DISKPOOL.
We created two new MCs in POLICYSET STANDARD 1. STANDARD_NC to backup to diskpool DISKPOOL_NC 2. STREAMING_NC to backup to sequential pool LTOPOOL_NC We validated the policyset and activated it. We scheduled a backup for a server which should have used the default MC - no overrides were specified in DSM.OPT or in the client option set. It started to rebind and then failed because there was no space in pool LTOPOOL_NC. I thought it may only be checking that all pools defined for the PS had space available so I set MAXSCRATCH to 500 in LTOPOOL_NC and rescheduled it. It rebound all files from the server and backup them up to a tape in pool LTOPOOL_NC. I did a "select hl_name,backup_date,class_name from backups. .." which showed that all the files on the server had rebound to MC STREAMING_NC. Why didn't it continue to use the default MC?
