[Veritas-bu] File restore search?

The admin of the client can also search in the client gui.

They can select the drive or all drives and do the same search.

That is the search that you teach users/client admins.

In the restore GUI, select all the images the file might be in. Then there's
an icon on the far-right of a pair of binoculars you can hit, or go under
the "Actions" menu and select "Search backups". 

The window displays the file name, size, backup date, modification date, and
path for each hit. 

Of course, if you advertise this to your users they'll never give you an
exact path for a restore ever again.... =)

 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bplist -R -PI <file_name> from the root, will
search all backups for the whole server for <file_name>

Is there a way to search a list of backups for a specific file name to see
if it exists on the backups?  i.e. I have a file name, but the person
requesting the restore can't recall what directory / File System the file
was stored in.

Thanks
Dan
