[Veritas-bu] files restration

Sorry - I'm out of town and a bit slow as a result.

If the list of 100 files is the same every day, just place the full-path
filenames in another file, say "/var/tmp/restoreme".

Then, via cron or daily by hand, run:

bprestore -C <source_server> -D <dest_server> -f /var/tmp/restoreme

You can speed the restore be more accurate if you add the policy to this,
too, but the above is probably the minimum.

If the filelist changes, then you'll have to do more work to generate a
listing somehow, via a lookup or perhaps a filter through the bplist
command.
