Re: [Networker] Reincorporating old tape set into Networker media database

nsrck -L7 will not recover indices if the savesets don't exist in the media db
anymore.
nsrck -L7 can recover client file index records only when the savesets exist in
the media db and have not expired (and marked as (E)ligible for recycling).
However the media db could be mm-recovered if it had been saved with "saverp
-O" as Stan suggested.
