How do you determine if the catalog is ASCII or binary?

On the master run bpimage -index 9.  This will greatly improve NBU's
performance in finding the files to restore.

Thanks,

We're running up against the problem where NBU takes a long time 
generating the file list for a restore with lots of files when binary 
catalogs are in use.  While I'm waiting on a response from Veritas, I 
was wondering if there is anything that can be done to make the process 
less painful.  Would using the -s and -e options to bprestore help 
narrow down the search?  We had a restore that was queued for over 2.5 
hours before we killed it out of frustration.

We're planning on moving to 5.1 about a month from now.  Is this still 
an issue with 5.1?
