Phil:
  Thanks for the reply.  Here's my Pool and Storage defs:

=====
# Definition of file storage device
Storage {
  Name = File
  Address = backula-va
  SDPort = 9103
  Password = "somepass"
  Device = FileStorage
  Media Type = File
}


# File Pool definition
Pool {
  Name = File
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 1 days
  Use Volume Once = yes
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 1400G
  Maximum Volumes = 10
}

=====

Thanks!
