Hi Darren,

Hmmm, true.  Then how about 'session client name:' of the 'NSR' type?  That
does work w/ client-initiated backups as I just tried it.  It is a hidden
attribute but it still shows if speficially requested to be shown.

Regards,

Hi Cor,

I use the 'work list' attribute.  Snip from one of my scripts (two
intentional lines) and the group name.

WORK_LIST=`echo "show work list
print type: nsr group; name: $GROUP" | nsradmin -s $NW_SVR -i -`

Work list is part of a group.  If he's having issues with finding a
running group in the first place (due to client-initiated backups), then
parsing a work list isn't likely to help.
