Okay, I just tried that, and the same problem occurs again. The Devices
window shows:

ready for reading, idle

next to the volume that has the original saveset, but the clone volume
never mounts, and if I manually mount it, NetWorker still shows the
following in the Messages window:

media waiting event: Waaiting for 1 writable voluems to backup pool
'Default Clone' tape(s) on server.

This is the same thing as before. There are no operations running. A 'ps
-ef | grep nsr' shows nothing else other than the clone operation. I
even waited as long as a half hour and still no results.
