If your running your groups from a production scheduler..then yes, as a
last step you can run a clone job that clones the indexes and bootstrap.
You would use the start time of the group and your bootstrap pool as the
mminfo query contraints.

You can keep appending to the clone tape on a daily basis.  If you want to
overwrite it you'll have to relabel it first.  I don't know anything about
your retentions though.

If I had to to this I'd probably have one job that runs every morning. It
would clone any index and bootstraps since the previous morning that don't
have 2 copies..  a query similar to:

mminfo -r 'ssid' -q 'savetime>=08:00:00 yesterday' -q 'copies<2' >file
nsrclone -v -b 'bootstrap_clone_pool' -S -f ./file
