In regard to: Re: [Networker] Changing the browse policy on a clone in 7.4,...:
Just to clarify a save set recovery is therefore necessary for the
cloned save sets?
Not necessarily.
Everything David said is (currently) true, but if you still have a copy
of the index for the client in question on tape, you can very quickly load
the index using nsrck -L7, and then be able to browse and recover what you
need.
So, if you need to keep a saveset around for a long time, it pays to also
keep a copy of the relevant index saveset(s) for the same length of time,
because having the client index makes it quick and easy to get back to
the point where things are browseable.

You can't. The browse policy is on the ssid not the cloneid. Also, the
browse policy can not be longer than the shortest retention policy.
I wonder if that is addressed in 7.5?

Folks,
Our set-up is Networker 7.4SP2 on AIX 5.3. We have commissioned an
EMC
Disk Library (DL4602) and also have a Quantum Scalar i2000 tape
library.
The intention is to write save sets to the DL in the first instance
then
clone them to the i2K. In 7.4 I know we can change the retention
policy
on the clone to be different from that of the original save set.
However, how do we change the browse policy for the clone so that we
do not have to do a save set recovery for these longer retention
backups? Can we set a browse policy on the original that is greater
than the retention policy to propagate this to the clone?
