Restoring from clone tapes

Hi Guys,

we are running NW 7.4.2 on Win 2k3 SP2

I am trying to restore some data from our weekly clones. I have marked the savesets suspect on the original volumes and marked the original tapes as offsite, however when I look at the required volumes it still asks for for the original tapes and not the clones.

I have also deleted the original volumes from NW but to no avail.

Any ideas?

    Never heard of that, but try something silly - try to load clone tapes and see what happens then. Eventually, ssid restore using ssid/cloneid of clone would work.

    It is strange, but I do believe that if NetWorker see's the clone voluem already mounted then it might choose this option, but you are right, marking the original as suspect should do the trick.
