I believe the trick is to specify "index:<client_name>" for the saveset,
and REMOVE the client name in the Pool definition.  The index belongs to
the server, not the client.

I have noticed instances before where the savegrp probe doesn't accurately
predict what will actually happen - of course, you could also be a victim
of a bug - don't have opportunity to test this myself.
