Hello,

I've tried the 'nsrstage' command successfully with one saveset of the bad
tape (I've used the GUI to see an SSID of the saveset and execute the
command with this number).

        C:\>nsrstage -m -v -b "Normal Pool" -S 767438583
        Obtaining media database information on server legato_server
        Parsing save set id(s)
        Migrating the following save sets (ids):
                767438583
        Automatically copying save sets(s) to other volume(s)

        Starting migration operation...
        nsrstage: Successfully cloned only the complete savesets
        nsrstage: Clones were written to the following volume(s):
                LNR128
        Deleting save set 767438583 clone 1103127124 from the media data
base.
        nsrstage: Space can only be recovered from adv_file and file type
devices.

After this, I've used 'mminfo' to obtain all the savesets in the bad tape
with this command:

        C:\>mminfo -v -q"volume=LCL103" -r"ssid" > savesets.txt

And executed 'nsrstage' using this file as input for SSID numbers:

        C:\>nsrstage -m -v -b "Normal Pool" -f savesets.txt -S
        Obtaining media database information on server legato_server

                1690184883

                2344496109
                2092837927
        Automatically copying save sets(s) to other volume(s)

        Starting migration operation...
        nsrstage: error, cannot clone an incomplete original
        nsrstage: Cannot open nsrstage session with legato_server
        nsrstage: Failed to clone any save sets

But I've got an error with incomplete savesets. So the question is: how can
I get a list of ONLY complete savesets in the bad tape to use it as input
for nsrstage command?

Thank you!
