Ray,

my understanding is that netbackup handles hard links in a way which
can lead to problems if you are not expecting it.

Somewhere in the manual there is a section that describes the
behaviors for handling links.

I usually think of soft links as pointers and hard links as additional
names for the same file.  At the file system level, all hard links to
a file are equal.
