Default Pool is a name of a pool, misleading I suppose... You have jobs that use it: Job { ... Pool = Default ... } Ironically, you don't even have any jobs that reference the pools you did create. Probably by chance, you defined "Storage" in your job, as the "Default Pool" you added lacks the definition where your manually created pools contain it. Reading the docs, you will see which overrides which. You're also not using the pools you created which I assume you mean to? Check your job defs... Take a breath, read the docs, it's actually very light reading but given the severity of you getting it wrong, you stand to lose lots. After all, backing up incorrectly kind of defeats the purpose, yeah:) That config is a smidge messy and its clear you don't yet know enough about the directives for you to think you have a reliable setup.
