Is the pool enabled, does it have free space, and is it named DEFAULT_POOL?

The first DEFAULT_POOL (the FBA pool) is the one you would use by default for TF/Snap, and in your case that pool is Disabled and does not contain any devices.

Add the -pool flag to that command:
symcfg -sid 123 list -pool -snap -gb
