Kate's right, "bp" comes from "Backup Plus"
An abbreviated history:
=====
NetBackup 5.1 is the 27th numbered release of the product, I believe...
1987 AWBUS was written by Control Data for a Detroit automaker.
(AWBUS = "Automated Workstation BackUp Service")
1990(?) CDC renamed the product and released Backup Plus 1.0
1993 The product was purchased by Openvision and renamed Axxion NetBackup
1997 "some other company" :-) purchased Openvision.
=====
HTH
