Automatic Clone problem

[anatox]

Hi,
I'm using Networker 6.1.2 on HPUX11 machine.
When configuring a group of a FULL backup to be cloned automatically, the networker usually asks for tapes from few weeks ago (even though I run full backup every week).
Is there a way to force an automatic clone to clone ONLY last full backup?

This sounds weird. I do not have any idea than assuming that
the media db may be defective.

Perhaps the time selection is not good.
You can use a script to find only the ssid's you want:
mminfo -q "savetime>last week,level=full" -r ssid >mylist
(try &quot;savetime>last saturday,savetime<last monday&quot; for exemple)

and then clone only these ssid's:
nsrclone -b pool -S -f mylist

10x speculos,
But I'm already running a script, but I'd prefer to use the automatic clone.

Could be misreading what is meant by &quot;last full backup,&quot; but here goes....

Put the full backup in its own group and turn on cloning for that group.

If cloning is needed only once a week, put the client on a special schedule for the day of the week when cloning is required. If the client is in a group of other clients and cloning is not wanted for the other group members, make a new group.

Hi kcongdon,
The full backup is on its own group, and the clone option is turned ON for it. All the clients in this group has to be cloned. In other days of the week, the clients are configured to other group that its clone option is OFF. And when the clone for the FULL backup group is enabled - it asks for tapes from older schedule. I think that it might behave like that, if Legato suspect the the current full backup is damaged?! But I've checked the save-sets status, and they all seems to be OK.
