Hi Patrick,
If I remember right, when you and I were with OpenVision/VERITAS ancient days 
ago, the add_slave_on_client running on the master could be used to update all 
of the UNIX clients with a new media server name. It wouldn't need any 
parameters. If anyone still has a NetBackup 3.4 then they could verify the 
bourne shell script. Unfortunately it is now an executable :-(
 
Basically it used "bpgp" to collect all of the UNIX bp.conf files onto the 
master and grepped for "SERVER = " and appended the new server as "SERVER = 
NEWSERVERNAME". The it again used bpgp to push the bp.conf back to the client. 
It always looked nasty because you then had multiple entries for media servers 
in the new file. They should have done a sort -u or something.

Does anybody have the parameters for this command? *help or *Q doesn?t do 
anything and there is nothing in the command line manual.Regards,Patrick
