For future filesets I recommend you don't create a file set per
client, but rather one per client type. In many cases you'll have lots
of similar servers, and having identical filesets to manage is a waste
of time...

Limit the number of volumes per pool, i.e. set "Maximum Volumes" to
something reasonable (at least enough for three backup cycles, in my
opinion and usually).
