This message usually means that there is no device on the NetWorker server
that can be used to write the pool used for your backup on the storage
node. Remember that the indices are always backed up on the server. Have
you configured lots of pools and restricted them to certain devices? If so
this has what has probably caused this. Tip: only create a new pool when
you really need to. Often the only reason to create multiple pools is to
accomodate multiple retention periods, although there are other valid
reasons. The solution is to either use less pools with less restrictions,
or create a dedicated index pool and configure it to backup all your
indices and bootstraps. The way to do this has been documented on this list
many times so I won't repeat it, but check the archives for info.
