Hmmm - I'll investigate this further.
I just listed the ssid/cloneid's for the clones done yesterday and (maybe this 
is correct I don't know, I need to look into it) but I see this sort of thing 
(taking just 2 different clients as an example)...

Client    name       ssid         cloneid         clonetime
Client1   filesys1   3747738242   1315447564      09/08/2011 03:06
Client1   filesys2   3865399286   1315447564      09/08/2011 03:06
Client1   filesys3   4167164356   1315447564      09/08/2011 03:06
Client2   filesys1   4200943471   1315447564      09/08/2011 03:06
Client2   filesys2   4348749181   1315448644      09/08/2011 03:24

I thought the cloneid would be unique?  But perhaps it's just the ssid/cloneid 
combination that's unique?
The cloneid's match up with the clonetimes obviously.

Jee - I tried the nsrinfo command you suggested.  Hope I got this right, but 
taking one of the cloneid's above, I see this...

nsrinfo -t 1315447564 Client1
scanning client `Client1' for savetime 1315447564(Thu 08 Sep 2011 03:06:04 AM 
BST) from the backup namespace
0 objects found

I've tried several others and get the same response.  

I also tried...
nsrinfo -n all -t 1315447564 Client1

But got the same result.

I did recover files from a clone last month so I'll try another and check I can!

Cheeers... Allan

souns like a bug...
what time is printed by nsrinfo when you use the cloneid as the nsavetime?

(e.g "nsrinfo -t <CLONEID> <CLIENTNAME>" )
