I think you are talking about the -FILELIST client option. Check it out in
the "Using the Backup-Archive Client" book, chapter 9 "Using Options with
Commands".

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.

I seem to remember, unless I had a very vivid dream of this, that Tivoli
introduced a way to get the filenames for a backup/archive from a file
on the command line.  I know I can do something like

        xargs -n 20 command <filename

but we are talking thousands of files here apparently.  Thanks for any
info.

P.S.  I searched msgs.adsm.org and could not find what I was looking
for.
