Re: [Networker] Question on saveset flag for mminfo command

man mminfo
The a is mentioned below. My guess would be the p is for the purged
savesets as mentioned below.

 The second flag indicates the status of the save set.   A  b
     indicates  that  the save set is in the on-line index and is
     browsable via the recover(1m) command.  An r indicates  that
     the  save set is not in the on-line index and is recoverable
     via the scanner(1m) command.  An E indicates that  the  save
     set  has been marked eligible for recycling and may be over-
     written at any time.  An S denotes that  the  save  set  was
     scanned in (or rolled in).  Rolled in save sets are not sub-
     ject to the standard index management  procedures  and  will
     remain  in the file index until the user manually purges the
     save set.  An a indicates that the save was  aborted  before
     completion.   Aborted save sets are removed from the on-line
     file index by nsrck(1m).  An i indicates that  the  save  is
     still  in progress.  The -v flag prints aborted, purged, and
     incomplete save sets in addition to the complete,  browsable
     save sets printed by default.
