Right, but I somehow forgot to add in there that the data could be
gotten from the registry with a script.

That's fine if you are on the client, but bpgetconfig is a tool in
NetBackup that makes pulling data from the clients through the NetBackup
ports possible. Incidentally, it's also a good troubleshooting tool to
help verify connectivity to the clients.

You can also use bpsetconfig to make setting changes on the clients as
well. very handy for batch updates of media server lists, etc.
