This is one of our most awaited development/improvement -> to copy/clone
volumes without the need to order tapes from offsite storage, load and
mount in the jukebox.
If I recall it correctly, I inquired to Legato Tech. Support regarding
this feature when we were still in v5.5. They told us that in v6+ we can
copy/clone per volume, but I think that is not happening now.
If the cloning process is still per saveset can somebody in Legato
please remove the 'Clone Volume' under the 'Media' pull down menu, it
only gives you false hopes and frustration.

You've confused me. Volume cloning has been in NetWorker for many
years,
not new at 6.1.3, unless there's something new that I've missed. It
works as you describe, cloning every save set on the volume, and any
other parts of the save sets that are continued to/from another
volume.
