This is because you resotred on the server only. I think you are using non-Windows platform and nwrecover GUI for recovery. That would recover data on the client/server from where you started nwrecover. You can only change the source client and destination path which you have done.

To recover data to the same client, you need to run nwrecover on the client where you want the recovery. In Windows, Networker User gives you the option of Directed Recovery which means you can select the source and the destination client for recovery.

It should be client (target one). It sounds as you are doing ssid restore from old GUI. Can you describe what kind of restore are you doing (GUI or CLI) and from what machine and with what parameters?
