bp Main Menu The bp utility is used to backup, archive, and restore files using NetBackup. When bp is invoked with no options specified, the main menu appears. The NetBackup master server's name and the client's name appears above the list of menu items. When using the menus, execute an operation by typing the letter to the left the related menu item. For example, typing b from the main menu displays the Backup Menu (it is usually unnecessary to press Enter). An ellipsis (...) to the right of an option means that when you choose the option, another menu or screen appears from which you can make more choices. If there is no ellipsis, the operation occurs immediately. The following are the menu items: b) Backup... Displays the Backup Menu, from which you can select the type of backup to perform. r) Restore... Displays the Restore Menu, from which you can select the type of restore to perform. h) Help Displays the Help Facility menu, from which you can display help on the Main Menu, display a tutorial, display an index of help topics, and display help on how to use help. q) Quit Quits (exits) the NetBackup client interface.
