I am starting to see a pattern in getting legato features to work as
documented.

Very frustrating.

I have since discovered that they incorporated the FORCE_REC_AFFINITY
environment variable at 7.3.3 to force cloning to use the Recovery
Storage Node parameter in the client properties.

I wonder what is easier, finding out yet another workaround to a
defective product, or doing the upgrade.

I'm running 7.3.3 myself -- and I also have a similar problem, I 
resorted to figuring out the first tape that was going to be needed and 
mounting that in the drive I want before issuing the nsrclone command.
