Sorry, the brain isn't engaged this am.  I have a single installation of
NWR 7.4.2 with two SNs all on Windows 2003.  All hosts are backed up
across a backup VLAN.  There's an LTO4 jukebox locally which is the
where the backups write to.  Mon to Thu is an incremental backup and Fri
is a full.  There is a requirement to clone the weekly full backups and
move them off-site. My plan was to clone the tapes from the production
to DR jukebox and stream the data across over the Sat and Sun.  This is
where it falls apart as I can't get the nsrclone command to clone all
the fulls.

This may simply be a case of me being out of date on nwr but I'm sure
I've done it before...

Jon

No - not with the limited amount of information you have given.

You'll have to give more information about what doesn't work.
