Take a look at the output of
printf "show session\n print type:nsr\n" | /usr/sbin/nsradmin -i -  | grep
clon

You'll see stuff like:

"cloning session: 16 save set(s) reading from SQLarchlogs.003.RO 34 MB of
312\

staging is an nsrclone in reality.  We have an in-house perl script that
combines the output from show session with ps -ef | grep to give us
in-flight status of clones, savegrps, browses, recovers etc.  essentially
what the Monitoring->Sessions view does in the 7.3-7.4 GUI but on the CLI.
