Using bplist to retrieve SQL Server backups

You can use the bplist command to obtain restore images. Use this command if you plan to manually create a restore script, rather than through the NetBackup for SQL Server interface. See the NetBackup Commands guides for complete information about bplist.

To extract all of the NetBackup for SQL Server backups from a specific server for a specific client, execute the following command from the MS-DOS prompt.

install_path\NetBackup\bin\bplist -C client -t 15 -S server -R \

where client is the host machine on which NetBackup for SQL Server resides and server is the host machine of NetBackup server.

Note:

The colon and backslash that terminate each line are not part of the backup name.
