I have a installation of networker server on a w2k (6.2 build 109) and different client (nt4,w2k,aix,linux,etc..)
all with client install (6.1.3).
All the groups are configured with automatic clonning.
But why when i use this command

<< d:\nsr\bin\mminfo -t &quot;yesterday - 1&quot; -rclient,name,ssid -q!incomplete,pool=LBKnormalfiles,copies=1,&quot;savetime<=today&quot;>>

who's give me all the SSID not cloned from the last session of backup (the day before) i have as result a number of SSID from saveset that are not cloned.

In short if all the groups are in auto clonning why does i have some SSID not cloned.

Can somebody help me to understand

 
Good question. But mminfo would not tell you. It just tells
what is available in the media db, not why something is
missing.

Which save sets have not been cloned? Can those be tracked
down to specific ones?

If there were problems, the log files should tell you.
 
I have check the log and found nothing abnormal
i can't answer at your second question i don't have enough information to answer (only two days of history)

But if it's a bug it can be very dangerous because you are never certain that you have all the data of your original backup in your clone.

am i right ?
 
Well, as you obviously know the save sets that have been
created you should just compare whether these also exist on
clone media or have more than 1 instance.

As usual (in life), you have to check whether someting has
been executed properly. If not, how can you ever become
aware of a potential problem?
