Martin Simmons kindly helped me realize that I was ass-u-me-ing something based on the output of "list volumes" and "list media". Both of these commands show the pools from other catalogs, with no entries in them. I assumed something wasn't recorded, not that it simply wasn't visible.
Using "use" to change catalogs reverses the results, showing you the volumes/media in that catalog and no results under the pool headers for the other catalogs. This is confusing. "list pools" happens to show all pools in any catalog, and that is where I think the problem may lie. Are Pools global? Or are they stored in a single catalog? Obviously this isn't a huge operational problem, so it's low priority, but I think that it would be much more intuitive if the interface only showed you pools (and pool headers) for the catalog you are using. Here's an example of the confusing output: *list media Pool: svcolo_30day No results to list. Pool: svcolo_3month No results to list. Pool: svcolo_1year No results to list. Pool: localnet_Pool No results to list.
