So ... if your browse/retention time is 2 months; and you need a recover
from a tape made 6 months ago (i.e., after the browse and retention have
expired); you do a "nsrck -L7" on a tape made 6 months ago that has the
index on it? And that just adds in the indexes from 6 months ago (allowing
you to browse), and has no effect on any information currently in the
index? The index from 6 months ago is just integrated back into the
current index, it does not replace the current index?
