environment
NetBackup 5.1 MP4 on Solaris 9 master server / Novell Netware clients using 
targets method
 
question
is it possible to use bpgp to get the bp.ini file from a Novell Netware client 
onto a UNIX master server. And then edit it and place it back onto the Novell 
Netware client? I don't want to "just try it" because I am afraid of causing an 
abend.
 
from RTFM
The BP.INI file, which is shared by both Target and NonTarget, is the 
configuration file used by the NetWare Client software to control back up and 
restore operations on your computer. It is created in the SYS:\VERITAS\NBUCLT 
directory the first time you run the NetBackup interface program?s NetBackup 
Configuration. You can set many BP.INI parameters through commands available on 
the Target?s NetBackup Configuration menu (see ?Modifying BP.INI Through the 
Target?s NetBackup Configuration Menu? on page 31). Others can be changed only 
by modifying the file directly with a text editor, such as Notepad.
 
The bp.ini file does show up in the restore GUI under this path
/FS/SYS/VERITAS/NBUCLT/NetBack/BP.INI
 
I am thinking of using the following syntax on my master server
# bpgp from novellclient "/FS/SYS/VERITAS/NBUCLT/NetBack/BP.INI" /tmp/bp.ini
# vi /tmp/bp.ini
# bpgp to novellclient /tmp/bp.ini "/FS/SYS/VERITAS/NBUCLT/NetBack/BP.INI"
