Hi All.
In terms of getting networker to request a clone volume instead of the
origional (from the administrators guide page 501
*
*
In order to recover save set files from a clone volume, rather than the
original
volume, you must first designate the original save set as *suspect*. Once
the
NetWorker server determines that the original save set is marked as suspect,
it looks for a cloned version. If a clone volume containing the cloned save
set
exists, it appears in the Required Volumes window. Otherwise, the software
attempts to recover the data from the suspect volume.
