[Veritas-bu] bpflist output field definitions?

This might be a little late but this is a script I wrote to pull the path and file names from an GET_ALL_FILES dump from bpflist called convert-nb-manifest.pl. I couldn't use awk due to the spaces in the file names and then I noticed that there were fields for how long the path and file name was and how far from the end it was. From that point it was a math problem mainly.

#!/usr/bin/perl
#
# convert-nb-manifest.pl - by Roger Wilber
#
use strict;
use warnings;

my $usage = "\nconvert-nb-manifest.pl <filename> Where <filename> is a netbackup manifest created using bpflist.\n\n";

my $nargs = $#ARGV + 1;
die $usage if ($nargs < 1);

my $inputfile = $ARGV[0];
chomp $inputfile;
open(DATAFILE, $inputfile) or die "Couldn't open $inputfile.";
LINE: while (<DATAFILE>) {
        chomp;
        next LINE if /^FILE/;
        my $length = (split / /, $_)[2];
        my $negoffset = (split / /, $_)[3];
        my $fulloffset = $negoffset + $length + 1;
        my $fragment = substr $_, -$fulloffset, $length;
        print "$fragment\n";
}

Running that against your test data gives the following:

/bcv/corp/data/vault/tape/archive_southfield/D219 PSA LAYOUT.XIF

I would not suggest using bpflist in this case. Use bplist.

You can use the -l and / or -b option to show the size of the file and either the time stamp or the date backed up.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] bpflist output field definitions?

Our environment is HP-UX 11.11, Netbackup 5.1 MP3 backing up mostly HP unix with some Sun and Windows backups.

I'm trying to find the field definitions for output of bpflist. I have to pull the path and filename of files backed up and some of our users are using a space in their name. Below is an example of a "bpflist –option GET_ALL_FILES –class policy-name -client host-name –d 12/09/01 00:00:00 -e 12/31/10 00:00:00 " command:

76 0 64 56 538839 1 0 0 1075773441 /bcv/corp/data/vault/tape/archive_southfield/D219 PSA LAYOUT.XIF 33188 210014 100 528582 1163080113 1163080113 1189688679

The filename ends after the above .XIF. Two questions,

What is the field containing 33188 ?
Can I be assured that there will always be 6 fields after the file name field?

Thanks in advance.
