Brian,

This will not have an effect on what is configured as a db client.

That information is defined in the policy database, not the client
database.
Although the commands looked similar,
-bpplclients queries and updates the policy db
-bpclient queries and updates the client db.



Type bpclient without any options and that will provide information on
how to use the command.

To query using bpclient there are multiple options.
NBU provides a human readable form, in general for most commands, it is
a capital L.
For output that you can parse in a script use a lower case l

To see all clients it is something like "bpclient -All -L"

Thanks so much... I will be documenting this in our wiki, with a plan
to publish it on the internet.

One question, it seems that by running this I add the clients that
aren't part of dbclient to dbclient, correct?

Also, is there a way to query the status of this field?

-Brian
