If you have the Date Range and Client name, try this: bpmedialist -media -U -d mm/dd/yy -e mm/dd/yy -client <Client Name> Foreach media id returned, lookup the images on it: bpimmedia -L -media <media ID> It's funny you mention this, because I would like to know how to get the list of files in a backup image. I usually end up loading too many tapes for a restore.
