Hi Darek,
Try the following:
>From Media and Device Management do the following
1) Delete all media in your "SCRATCH" poool
2) Delete your "SCRATCH" pool (may be you cannot, if so go to #3)
3) Go to /usr/openv/volmgr and edit vm.conf
If you have a line with:
SCRATCH_POOL = "NAME _FOR_YOUR_SCRATCH_POOL" delete it
4) Now delete "SCRATCH" pool, from Media and Device Management
5) recreate again your vm.conf file with a new
SCRATCH_POOL = "NAME _FOR_YOUR_SCRATCH_POOL" line
Do an inventory on your robot using the options
update volume configuration and
"Update options" Volume pool = "NAME _FOR_YOUR_SCRATCH_POOL"
Now you can start your backups again
