Re: [Networker] Never ending groups (sry last subject wrong)

Hello all. I've a problem with two groups with automatic cloning (don't
know if this is relevant info or not)
Both groups seem to finish well, also the cloning does, but then both
keep on waiting with a pending saveset (one or two machine's indexes),
and the server asks for an old (off-site) tape to be mounted. The groups
must be stopped by hand.
I tried to remove the machines affected with the pending savesets from
the groups, but still both keep on complaining with another machines'
indexes.
I had a similar problem in version 6.X. Got the tapes back from
off-site, supplied them to server, and it asked for more and more tapes
each time it was finished with one, as in an unending process. I
reinstalled 7.0.
¿Can you imagine what kind of operation with indexes it's willing to do,
for requiring old tapes? nsrck -L 6 does nothing, so I suppose indexes
on disk (21 GB) are fine.
I had hardware problems recently, and group and server crashes. And
server is doing other odd things, as keeping on using Default Pool for a
group correctly assigned to its pool. Another fact maybe relevant is
that currently, for cooling problems, we are switching off 25% of
networker clients every night. And some of them are finishing in the
morning, not using the 20 or 30 minutes group timeout.
Server EBS 7.0 on Solaris 9.
TIA and sorry if situation it's not clear enough, I think its a kind of
degradation or corruption.
