Re: [Networker] How to move the contents of a volume do a different volume?

Paul,
So, you have saveset X which has sections (or fragments) on tapes A, B, and C.
You are asking
how to move just the fragments of saveset X which are on tape B to a new tape
without moving
the fragments on tapes A and C? That is not possible with NetWorker.
