Hello,

index files are linked with clients, not with pools.

Check if /nsr/index/client_name is a known client name in nwadmin. If so, you
may have discrepancy between client and index (nsrck -L6 client_name).

If you've renamed or deleted clients, it may occurs that files remain undeleted
(especially if index was not 'clean').

First you can stop NW, rename this directories, start NW. If, after a couple of
days/week, you have no problems, you can delete this directories.

Hope this helps.
