How do you set a field value for a pool to empty or blank? For example,
the volume type preference under pools window is empty by default, but
once you set it to one of the possible choices, you can't go back to
"blank" again. Checked out nsradmin=>visual=>Select=>NSR pool and then
used 'Next' to look at other pools and affected pool and notice none of
the others has any of the values selected for that field but the
affected pool has [] around the chosen value. How can you unselect it?
Is nsradmin used for this? Why the heck doesn't the software just have a
"blank" option so you can just set it back again from the GUI? They
could just call it 'blank'. Gee, guess that makes too much sense.

This brings up a more general question of how you do this for any field
anywhere under the GUI wherein NetWorker leaves the field empty by
default but allows you to select one of at least two or more options.

Seems someone always wants to know how to change the location field, but
here we have a command (mmlocate) for that. Not sure of any specific
command for this, though.

Thanks.

George
