As long as the tape has been overwritten you should be able to report on
it via mminfo.
Might need to do a scanner -i ssid to rebuild the client index. 1997
was quite a few years ago!!
We have had similar problems not being able to recover from nsrck -L7,
but our issue is our backup server would switch between long name/short
name whenever it was rebooted.

[Networker] Recovering old indexes/mm's
This email is to be read subject to the disclaimer below.
Dear List,
I am faced with a dilemma on one of my networker servers at an
interstate
site. I have to restore some data from 1997 from aqn old client. I have
recreated the client and checked the indexes - the file index only goes
back to 1997, but when I use mminfo I see that there are savesets for
this
client, and i can also see index backups as well.
The problem is when I run nsrck -L7 <client_name_here> it comes up with
this:-
S:\>nsrck -L7 foobar
nsrck: checking index for 'foobar'
nsrck: The file index for client 'foobar' will be recovered.
nsrck: The index recovery for 'foobar' failed.
nsrck: File index error: can't find index backups for 'foobar' on server
foobarbck1
nsrck: Completed checking 1 client(s)
Now when I look through the media index with mminfo I find this, a
perfectly good index backup of client foobar:-
volume client date size
level
name
AUPERTNT_M.040 foobarbck1 25/11/2000 43 MB full
D:\win32app\nsr\index\foobar
The server is running 7.1.1 nowadays, back then it was running 5.x I
believe. Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers,
Matt
