Note that you can just leave the saveset line blank.  Then anything that
isn't matched more specifically (as it is in the RAID pool) will go here.

Right.  You could put them in separate groups if you wanted, though.
However ALL would still back up /raid1 and /raid2.

No, I don't think that has anything to do with it.  Networker
understands separate filesystems as savesets.

I agree, it looks like it should work here.  You don't need to specify
both the group and the client in the pool definition, but it shouldn't
affect this.

Could you post the output from...

savegrp -p server

That will 'probe' the client, hopefully showing all the connections it
would attempt, and the pool it would use.

It might be something subtle, but I'm not seeing the reason at the
moment.
