Multiple pools were not the problem. I believe the limitation on how
many volumes in each pool was. I believe that combined with changing
configuration in bacula-dir.conf without applying the change in
bconsole. Remember that making changes in the pool definition in
bacula-dir.conf does not change already existing volumes.
