Hi Michael
NetWorker does have the very cool ability to clone between storage nodes over
an IP network; the source storage node reads the saveset and sends it to the
target storage node, which writes it to the clone output device.
Check out the NetWorker Administration Guide for the section on how to set up
the clone affinity (not sure if it is called that in the Guide). It's
important that you use the admin guide for the NetWorker release you are using,
as the cloning affinity setup has changed over the past several releases.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [Networker] Cloning from one storage node to another
I've got a odd, new situation for me. I have a storage node, configured as
an AFTD device that I usually clone to tape, on a library attached to my
server. However, the library is down for repairs and I'd like to re-direct
the cloning to go to a tape drive defined on a different storage node. Do
I need to add the 2nd storage node as a "clone storage node" in the
configuration of the client I wish to clone from?
Ex: Node1 (AFTD device) to be cloned onto tape drive attached to Node2 ...
I need to add "Node2" to the "Clone Storage Node" entry of my client in
NMC? Right now, that entry is blank. In "Storage Nodes", I have
"curphyhost" and "nwserverhost" for Node1 (it's a cluster client)
Thanks
