Both ssflags and clflags say that:

     ssflags     NA           7  The save set flags summary, one or more
                                 characters in the set CvrENiRPKIF, for
                                 continued, valid, purged (recoverable),
                                 eligible for recycling, NDMP generated,
                                 incomplete, raw, snapshot, cover,
                                 in-progress and finished (ended),
                                 respectively.

     clflags     NA           5  The clone flags summary, one or more characters
                                 from the set ais for aborted, incomplete,
                                 suspect (read error), respectively. This
                                 summary reflects the status of an instance
                                 of a save set.

Looks like a sloppy bit of copy and paste, because you're in trouble
when you have any character in the latter. A simple test for a
"reliable" copy is that the clflags are empty.
