George, it's an example. You are perfectly free to adapt it to meet your
needs.

Or how about they're suggesting that it's a good idea and that you might
want to do it.

OK, so you change the regular expression so that it does what you want.
Take out the bit for bootstrap. Leave in the bit for index, although the
example is not very good because as someone else pointed out it will match
the word "index" anywhere in a save set name. Better to specify ^index:
then it will only pick index at the beginning of a line - i.e. NetWorker 6+
index naming convention. (YMWV for NW5 and below). Then since you want only
a specific client, add this in too. So you end up with a regular expression
like so:
^index:yourclientname$

Of course it is possible - this is NetWorker!
