How can I repair this? Basically I need to clone multiple volumes onto a single volume and avoid the creation of another ssid/cloneid or "expire" the original ssid/cloneid of the clone instance and create another on the new volume. Further, I would like the merged volume to expire at the same time the orignal (if the operation was successful) would have expired... so in this case 42 days from today.
Any advice?

You should be able to use the nsrstage command specifying the ssid and cloneid (the -S parameter) of the clone copy to move it off those three volumes onto another.

However, there is no guarantee that networker won't have issues with other volumes and still not put the whole thing on a single volume like it should -- whatever is causing the errors that forced the original clone to span volumes will still be in play.
