That looks interesting, but I assume it includes all pools, backup and 
clone... If so, I'll need to exclude clone pools for my purposes, since 
I'm trying to get a feel for how much disk space we'll need, going 
backup-to-disk.

It's difficult for me know whether or not the totals returned by the 
mminfo query I posted earlier make sense. They're larger than I would have 
expected offhand, but then again it's been a little while since I summed 
everything up and datasize does indeed grow. It seems to me that if I tell 
mminfo "return a list of every non-recyclable saveset in your database, 
excluding clones, without any date restrictions, and tell me the size of 
each saveset", that should sum up to a total of the space needed to house 
an entire cycle at that point in time, no?
