You need to create a pool, and assign the groups and the advanced file
devices to that pool.

I don't want to use only one large device because I want to be able to clone
or stage on multiples devices at the same time, and you can only have 1 read
session at a time on the adv_file device.

However, when I try and assign a group to more than one of the devices, I
get a message from Legato that the Pool has overlapping selection criteria
and it won't allow that.
