Makes no sense that they remove a command that allows putting or getting a file on a client yet leave bprsh.

bprsh allows root to run any command that is in the /usr/openv/netbackup/bin or volmgr/bin as root on a client.

Any command could potentially be placed into those directories. It doesn’t have to be a NetBackup command.

bpgp is like a speck of sawdust in the eye of security while bprsh would be a plank. (NIV paraphrase)

Just wondering if you NetBackup 6.5 admins can check to see if bprsh
still is available. bprsh is similar to remsh or rsh


Yup, it's still there.
