DRM doesn't care how many copy pools you have.
It just wants to know which of your copy pools you want it to process.

If you enter the Q DRMSTATUS command, you will see the list of copy storage
pools DRM manages.
To define the list, you use the SET DRMCOPYSTGPOOL command, and list which
copy pools you want DRM to control.

As an example, my primary tape pools are called BACKUPDLT and ARCHIVEDLT.
I have a copy pool for each called BACKUPDLT2 and ARCHIVEDLT2, that I want
to be managed by DRM
I have another copy pool for each called BACKUPDLT3 and ARCHIVEDLT3, that
stay on site and are NOT managed by DRM.

So I entered the command:  set drmcopystgpool backupdlt2,archivedlt2

to make DRM control those two offsite pools.

Hope that helps.
