There it is right there -- all of your volumes are in an error state.
You can use update them to set them to another status, but you really
want to find out why they are set to error. Somewhere along the line,
something failed on each of them and left things that way. If you have
e-mail reports, it might be clearer why.

Well, you must have SOME pool, even if it's the default one. "list
pools". Show us a "list media" and perhaps an "llist media" -- this will
show you any limitations on the volume files themselves.
