Anything that can be done in the NB GUI can be done via command line, usually faster (with the possible exception of cold building a policy and schedule set).  Netbackup is very extensible via command-line.  If it doesn't do what you want out of the box, you can probably script it.
 
That said, your request is a bit broad.  I have 250 custom scripts written for Netbackup and just burying you in them wouldn't make sense (plus at least half are specific to my environment).  I'd suggest starting with the command line reference guide here:
 
 
..and just read it.  It's boring to read cover to cover but it's a great way to see all what's possible.
 
You also might just search the history of this mail list, I know many code snippets have been posted.
 
Good Luck.
 
I'll forward the pdf from my Veritas Vision presention on writing your own tools directly.  It was written when v4.5 was the top version but a lot of it is still applicable.

Hi
My company planning to migrate backup strategy from TSM to Netbackup. I am good in writing script in TSM but very bad in Netbackup. Do any body have command line examples or script i can use ?
