The recover output shows that the recover is using an NDMP drive.

Nsrndmp_recover -c client1 -s bkp server -S ssid -m 
client2::/vol/path/on/client2 /vol/path/from/client1

42787:nsrndmp_recover: Performing recover from NDMP type of device
42897:nsrndmp_recover: Opened the tape device : nrst0a
42690:nsrndmp_recover: Performing non-DAR Recovery..
42617:nsrndmp_recover: NDMP Service Log: RESTORE: Fri Jun 24 14:43:41
2011: Begin level 0 restore

I would expect an error/warning message if the volume were mounted somewhere 
else.
