[Networker] SV: [Networker] AFTD device/nsrstage command with 8.0.1.5

Maybe I didn't specify what I meant: If it comes to a recovery after the 21
days, you will only have the one clone of the saveset, so the behavior you
mention will be irrelevant. And up until 21 days, NW will use the one with the
lowest timestamp, as you correctly mention.

Out of my experience your statement:
"And as a side note, remember that a clone is exactly that, a clone. This
means that NW doesn't care the least whether you point it to a clone to do the
recover from or the original saveset."
is not really correct. At least not when NW selects the recover media.
NW will in fact always go for the original backup instance - precisely the one
with the lowest clone ID timestamp. This makes sense as otherwise he might
potentially grab the slower tape. It is a pain if you set the location for a
backup tape media to another value than your jukebox' name as NW will not even
choose another media - even if it is inside the autochanger - unless you will
force him to do so. And you can achieve that in several ways:
- mark the original backup save set 'suspect'
- for save set restores: specifiy the save set instance (-S ssid/cloneid)
