I don't think any of the sipb-cell backup procedures store away a
list of the .nb volumes. Everything that's recorded is first filtered
through something like !~ /\.nb$/ or ggrep -v '\.nb ', depending on
what person/language is involved.

Right, /afs/sipb/project/rosebud/info had a list of rosebud volumes
from August 1992. There wasn't anything for ronald-ann.

However, when I was doing the backups I would usually squirrel away
listvol output to some random place on a machine at work. I just put
the ones from the last time I did the sipb-cell backup (May 31) into
/afs/sipb/project/ro{nald-ann,sebud}/info/ro{nald-ann,sebud}-volumes.31may1993.

I probably have most all the other ones for several months before
then, too (though some of them are likely on tape by now). If anyone
thinks these are important, send me mail and I'll try to dig them out
on Sunday.

I don't, however, have any copies of the prdb...
