run mminfo -r"clientid" -q"clientid=ninmp3" 

Does it return anything? 

Run it again for the long name? 

Does it retrun anything? 

Are they the same? Different clientids? 

If the long name returns the client id I would delete the short name
client, recreate the long name client using the clientid returned above.


Sounds like maybe the index was saved under the long name. Was the
client deleted and recreated after upgrading?

No such luck in either case..  nsrck -X provides:

nsrck: checking index for 'ninmp3'
nsrck: /nsr/index/ninmp3/ninmp3.tpi.local contains 0 records occupying 0
KB
nsrck: Completed checking 1 client(s)


[root@ninmp3 root]# nsrck -L7 ninmp3
nsrck: checking index for 'ninmp3'
9343:nsrck: The file index for client 'ninmp3' will be recovered.
9348:nsrck: The index recovery for 'ninmp3' failed.
39078:nsrck: File index error: can't find index backups for 'ninmp3' on
server 'ninmp3.tpi.local'

I'm guessing my only recourse is to scan the tapes in with scanner.
