BPCD and BPRD
Hi All,
I need to know about BPCD and BPRD. I found much confusion in the admin books somewhere written both are microsoft protocal and another guide says bpcd is used in windows and bprd in unix? ...

Both are used in Unix and Windows.
bprd is the executable that is called the Request daemon on a Unix/Linux master and the Request service on a Windows master.
bpcd runs on all servers and clients and is used for initial handshake between servers and clients - Client daemon on Unix/Linux and Client Service on Windows.
See Appendix A of the Troubleshooting Guide for overview of NetBackup processes.
First read through the process flow diagrams, then read up about the different processes under the topic NetBackup programs and daemons.
