Bpsetconfig looks like what I need.  I will see what I can do with it.

Thanks to all.

Actually, this has two problems, the NetBackup software knowing about
the new server and the client resolving the IP address. The first part
is easy. You can use bpsetconfig to push a new list of servers to the
client. The second part is a little more tricky. If the media server is
in DNS, then you are home free. If not, and you are using host files,
you could use bpgp to grab the file, edit it, and put it back with the
changes.
