Hi,

You cannot use nsrclone with option -m on NW 7.5

The -m option is not documented on the NW 7.5 man page for nsrclone.

I think that option was introduced wit Nw 7.6 and  That seems to explain why 
NW complains about some volume but it should throw a syntax error...


Note:

If nsrstage complains about options  -m an -C  then you must have used both 
options together. You should use "either -m or -C" but not both on the same 
command. I assume you did (but you didn't show the exact nsrstage command 
that produced the error)
