Browsing Sybase backups

You can use the bplist command to browse the Sybase backup history on the master server. The result is the list of dump file names. The following example bplist command searches all Sybase backups (dumps) for a client named copper on a server named candytuft:

UNIX and Linux:

root:<candytuft> % cd /usr/openv/netbackup/bin
root:<candytuft> % bplist -S candytuft -C copper -t 7 -R /
