Hello, small query regarding the use of cloned tapes.

I take a full backup on a friday night and clone these tapes.
On tuesday I take a level two backup (backing up everything from the last full 
on friday)

Scenario:
My friday full volume is removed from the media database and the tape is 
re-labelled!
I need to recover data on wednesday morning, this requires the level two backup 
tape and the last full backup tape.
Luckily I have a clone of the required tape that was re-labelled.
When I initiate the recovery will Legato be intelligent enough to use the clone 
tape and the tuesday level 2 tape for the data recovery.


Regards,  Mark
