NetWorker uses in version 7 and higher a config directory,
nsr.res is gone and replaced with nsrdb.
nsrd converts nsr.res to nsrdb on process start

Thanks,

There is no 'res.R' file anywhere under /nsr, but the nsr/nsr.res file 
is the same one that was on our old server so it seems that it brought 
it back and simply overwrote the default one that was created following 
the install. Maybe if I restart the software it will see the new info?

I may have to wait until we have a storage node and library in place 
before recovering all the client indexes. I don't think I have enough 
space on the old server to dump all the client indexes to a file type 
device for copying and recovering via a file type device on the new 
client. I do have enough space to do some of them as a test, though. 
Otherwise, maybe I can do it in chunks with no more than a certain 
number of clients in the group at one time.
