Hm.. strange stuff..

..From the 7.4.2 windows release notes from powerlink - we upgraded
today :

With NetWorker release 7.4 Service Pack 2, regular expression queries
have been enabled for the nsradmin command line program, using a new
command, regexp. The regexp command can either be set to on, which
enables regular expression queries, or off, which retains the previous
behavior in which wildcards are not supported for queries. By default,
regexp is off.

To enable regular expression queries in the nsradmin program:

1. At the nsradmin prompt, type the regexp on command:

        nsradmin> regexp on

2. Perform a query by using wildcards, for example:
        
        nsradmin> print type: NSR pool; name: Index*

This will return all pools that begin with the name "Index," for
example:

        name: Indexed Archive;
        name: Indexed Archive Clone;
