Is it a cluster ? Could be the client version to not
be the same on both nodes.

Have a  try to uninstall networker and reinstall it.
Maybe a corrupted/overwritten dll.

Have also a try to force in PATH the networker path
on top of variable, just to avoid it find the dlls it needs
from another dir ...

Hello Thierry!

* No save is not aliased to nsrarchive.

* nsrarchive is not in the backup command field.

* Yes - when NetWorker says archiving to pool, it is actually saving to
a 
backup pool.

* backup server is not licensed for archiving.

* Clients do not have manual archiving enabled.

* The annotation field in the mminfo query is empty.


I haven't seen this behaviour before either. And it is intermittent. The

same client says "saving" one day and "archiving" the other day.
I don't know if this is affecting any functionality, but it is annoying.
