Philip,

My first thought is that your fd, maybe, should not be more current than 
the dir or sd. Having an older fd worked for me. The second thing is 
there are no 'maximum' commands. Here are mine in the "Pool" section:
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 4GB
  Maximum Volumes = 115

Multiply 4 x 115 = 460 GB - bad things happen if the disk gets full

The third thought is that you really should run a much simpler 
setup(conf files) till all issues are hashed out. You are doing things 
the hard way.
