Correct, because this is not a supported method of changing the location
for backups.

You should revert (undo) the changes you made so that the pool is
configured for the default /var/lib/backuppc and then mount your raid 6
array at /var/lib/backuppc.

This will solve the problems you are having, and from your next backup,
pooling will start to be used.
