In theory it should be that easy...

However, you will need to be certain that the system you issue the nsrclone 
command on has the 
storage node (with the volume for "some_clone_pool" mounted) listed in it's 
client definition 
as a valid storage node for it to talk to and that the volume that is mounted 
there does not 
already have a copy of ssid xxxxxx on it (even if it is marked as suspect, bad, 
expired, etc).
