sorry - just noticed AFTD in the subj - it looks like you can be doing multiple
backups and only one (manual) clone within a single storage node
Advanced File Type Device - these are slightly different (page 10-17 admin
7.3.2 guide):
Differences in the cloning process
For both file type devices and AFTDs, save sets are cloned one at a time.
Important
differences exist, however, in the cloning process for the two types of devices:
◆ For file type devices, both automatic and manual cloning begins only after
all the save sets
in a savegroup have been backed up.
◆ For AFTDs, automatic cloning begins after the save sets have been backed up.
Manual
cloning of a save set can, however, begin as soon as it has finished its backup.
◆ For AFTDs, two simultaneous clone operations can be run from the
command-prompt, as
long as no backup, recover, or stage operations are running at the same time.
The syntax
is as follows:
* nsrclone -S [ssid/cloneid1]
* nsrclone -S [ssid/cloneid2]

Automatic savegroup cloning happens after that savegroup's completion,
other savegroups running while cloning is ok though
Of course it's limited by the available drives, etc

Subject: [Networker] B2D AFTD: Concurrent operations within a single
storage node
Has anyone had experience of cloning from B2D? In the Networker Admin
guide Table 10-2: 'Concurrent operations within a single storage node'
it suggests that it's not possible to clone a saveset automatically
while backups are happening. Is that correct, or have I misinterpreted
the information?
Thanks
Nick
