Backup problem---Again
I am running my solstice backup 5.5.1 server on a solaris 2.6 platform.
I have a remote client ; my mailserver also running solaris 2.6.
I created a unique pool and group for my mailserver, but when i label to pool, mount and run backup, it doesnt backup my mailserver, rather it gives me error message ;
media critical event: backup to pool 'Default' waiting for 1 writable backup tapes(s)
And i didnt specify 'default' as the pool for that group.
Meanwhile, Other clients in other pools are being backed up sucessfully.
Also i dont have a path for /sbin/init.d/networker, all i have is sbin. Why? doesnt it come up by default after installation.

pooladm(1M) pooladm(1M)
NAME
pooladm - activate and deactivate the resource pools facility
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/pooladm [-n] [-s] [-c] [filename] | -x
/usr/sbin/pooladm [-d | -e]
The pooladm command provides administrative operations on pools and sets. pooladm reads the specified filename and attempts to activate the
pool configuration contained in it.
Before updating the current pool run-time configuration, pooladm validates the configuration for correctness.
Without options, pooladm prints out the current running pools configuration.
The following options are supported:
-c Instantiate the configuration at the given location. If a filename is not specified, it defaults to /etc/pooladm.conf.
-d Disable the pools facility so that pools can no longer be manipulated.
-e Enable the pools facility so that pools can be manipulated.
-n Validate the configuration without actually updating the current active files. Checks that there are no syntactic errors
and that the configuration can be instantiated on the current system. No validation of application specific properties is
performed.
-s Update the specified location with the details of the current dynamic configuration.
This option requires update permission to the configuration that you are going to instantiate. If you use this option with
the -c option, the dynamic configuration is updated before the static location.
-x Remove the currently active pool configuration. Destroy all defined resources, and return all formerly partitioned compo-
nents to their default resources.
The following operands are supported:
filename Use the configuration contained within this file.
Example 1: Instantiating a Configuration
The following command instantiates the configuration contained at /home/admin/newconfig:
example# /usr/sbin/pooladm -c /home/admin/newconfig
Example 2: Validating the Configuration Without Instantiating It
The following command attempts to instantiate the configuration contained at /home/admin/newconfig. It displays any error conditions that
it encounters, but does not actually modify the active configuration.
example# /usr/sbin/pooladm -n -c /home/admin/newconfig
Example 3: Removing the Current Configuration
The following command removes the current pool configuration:
example# /usr/sbin/pooladm -x
Example 4: Enabling the Pools Facility
The following command enables the pool facility:
example# /usr/sbin/pooladm -e
Example 5: Saving the Active Configuration to a Specified Location
The following command saves the active configuration to /tmp/state.backup:
example# /usr/sbin/pooladm -s /tmp/state.backup
/etc/pooladm.conf

poolcfg(1M), poolbind(1M), psrset(1M), pset_destroy(2), libpool(3LIB), attributes(5)
Resource bindings that are not presented in the form of a binding to a partitionable resource, such as the scheduling class, are not neces-
sarily modified in a pooladm -x operation.
The pools facility is not active by default when Solaris starts. pooladm -e explicitly activates the pools facility. The behavior of cer-
tain APIs related to processor partitioning and process binding are modified when pools is active. See libpool(3LIB).
You cannot enable the pools facility on a system where processor sets have been created. Use the psrset(1M) command or pset_destroy(2) to
destroy processor sets manually before you enable the pools facility.
