Networker marks a saveset as cloned when starting to clone it if the 
process does not complete you do not have a clone even though mminfo will 
say you have.
So sometimes (in our case daily) you need to clean this up ie. use mminfo 
to find clflags and look for values of a,i or s (aborted, incomplete or 
suspect) then feed these to nsrmm to delete them from the media database.
Depending on how you clone these savesets can then be picked up for 
cloning the next time you do it.

Oh yes don't do this while cloning is running as the current saveset being 
cloned will be incomplete 8-)
