Re: [Veritas-bu] UNIX doesn't like windows "space"

It's worth noting that the one place neither escaping nor quoting works (in my experience) is in rename files (the argument for -R on bprestore).

Unless I'm missing something?

The backslash, single quote, double quotes all worked.

How do I get past the "space" in a windows folder name when running bplist from a UNIX master?

Like all other Unix shell commands that have spaces in them - escape it. Ditto if you have wildcards in your bplist.

For instance

# bplist -C daddywarbucks -t 13 -R 2 -nt_files -s 01/01/2007 -e 01/22/2008 /C/Program Files/VERITAS/NetBackup

# bplist -C daddywarbucks -t 13 -R 2 -nt_files -s 01/01/2007 -e 01/22/2008 /C/Program\ Files/VERITAS/NetBackup
