Well, if your storage group table data that you posted was from after 
the change--with the data that causes it to never fail--it's quite 
possible that the storage group config was wrong.  I'm basing my "before 
the storage groups/file stuff" comment on the fact that your SG config 
looked good in the output you gave.
