Hello,
In my configuration, I have (paraphrasing it for simplicity):
ScratchPoolA
Type=Scratch
FullPoolA
Type=Backup
RecyclePool=ScratchPoolA
ScratchPool=ScratchPoolA
IncrPoolA
Type=Backup
RecyclePool=ScratchPoolA
ScratchPool=ScratchPoolA
NextPool = FullPool
Job
Full Backup Pool = FullPoolA
Incremental Backup Pool = IncrPoolA
All my Virtuals then end up in FullPoolA.
There are no separate pools for Virtuals.
