I need to do something I've never done before. I have a tape (it holds 
bootstrap and client file index (CFI) information). I want to make a clone 
of this entire tape, and keep it onsite, and send the original offsite. 
I've cloned specific savesets before, but to any available tape in a pool. 
 In this case, I want to clone the tape to a specific volume (in a 
specific pool). So I want:

nsrclone <source volume> <target volume>

Now, the target volume will be in the same pool as the source, but I don't 
see an option to specify a specific volume as target. I see, from looking 
at the Command reference. I don't want the nsrclone command to start 
cloning onto just any other tape in the pool; I want it on a specific 
tape. And I can't seem to figure out how to do that, from reading the 
command line references.

nsrclone -b "Bootstrap" <source volume>

Seems like it would clone all of the contents of <source volume> to 
another tape in the "Bootstrap" pool, which is good. But how to specify a 
specific volume? I suppose I could make sure there are no other volumes of 
that pool in the library when I issue the command, but there should be a 
way to specify what I want (I think).

Clues, anyone?
