Oh, I know it is available. And I know this because last night I did the
standard offline recovery for Win 2008 R2 on that client. And it all Just
Worked. I saw the FULL backup (including the DISASTER_RECOVERY: saveset)
that MMINFO and NMC showed me, and that NW User does not. And the recover
seemed to work, I logged into the domain, no errors shown in the windows
logs, etc.

That's a new one for me; I may have to try that.

I do have this open as a case. At the moment it is severity 2, mostly
because I haven't had an opportunity to close it yet. It certainly appears
to be an Idiosyncrasy of NW User, since NW User is showing me the
DISASTER_RECOVERY: savesets on at least 2 other Win2008 R2 clients
(haven't had time to look at other Win2008 R2 clients, to see if NW User
is showing that saveset for all others).
