No, actually the storage group information I posted was the configuration
which is pretty much guaranteed to fail -- all Default storage group members
are defined on the Master backend and all are NFS mounted. The
configuration that works is to define a Default group on the slave backend
which includes only directories which are local to the slave backend.
