Thanks Donovan, but I think the problem may not have anything to do with
resolving clients. I just realized that I was trying to recover to /tmp on my
NSR server from a NetAQpp. That does not work. Now I have to figure out how to
recover the directory from my old Netapp filer client but send it to the
same filer with a new hostname or send it to the NearStore. The tape drives
are connected to the NearStore and I only have one license for NDMP.
Anyone played with nsrndmp_recover in detail.

I have been able to recover to a different NDMP client by fooling the
backup server (changing the local hosts file) and then performing a new
jbconfig. Example:
Original: jbconfig has two NDMP drives:
celerra2:c0t1l0
celerra3:c0t2l0
You need to recover old NDMP client called celerra1. So, add celerra1
to /etc/hosts and give it the same IP as say celerra2. Delete the jukebox
and perform a new jbconfig. This time use celerra1:c0t1l0 as the NDMP
device. Strange, but I guess when Networker contacts the server (this case
it is celerra2 on port 10000) it does not verify the hostname!! This works
beautifully for me every time. A little annoying to keep doing jbconfigs
but it works.
Now this is using an EMC Celerra, you might get different behavior with
Netapps. Hope this helps,
Donovan
