Hello (from France, so excuse my english !)

If you have corruption of media database, try checking it with : nsrck -m
(during poor Networker activity)

Media database is not located under nsr/index but nsr/mm. Under /index, you have
information when browsing data (before browse policy expires), but if you ask
for a saveset recovery or data after browse policy expiration, you access data
located under nsr/mm.

If your media database is corrupted, you may recover information about a tape by
issuing a scanner command on this tape.

You can also check data index with nsrim -X which scan for bad savesets.

At last, you can check the client involved by nsrck -L6 client_name.

Hope this helps...

Denis.
