Hi all,
Here's a rather specific one...  Trying to launch a Windows-Flashbackup
job from the command line of a client (part of a much larger script that
is not handled by Netbackup)

Anyone ever tried the following from a Windows client?
        bpbackup -p <user_backup_policy_name> -s Full -t 13 -S
<master_name> \\.\G:\MyServer

Results in a filelist served up of:
        /\\./G:/MyServer

Which of course, isn't the \\.\ format that Flashbackup wants.  Ie:
Netbackup isn't accepting my string as literal.  Looks oddly perl-ish in
fact...

Just curious.

Thanks,
Jon
