Estimate the size of a backup for a particular group

is there a way to estimate the size of a backup for a particular group from the comand line?
I would like to know how much space the backup of a group will require, is it posible to find this out, without having to add all the savesets for all the clients?

    ...without having to add all the savesets for all the clients?

    In that specific case you could run print by connecting to client's nsrexec process and in return you will get current dusk space usage on machine which would be circa what you are after.

    savegrp -n -G group_name
    you can also estimate the size of full, incr etc level of backup by using the option -l level.
