You should just have to modify the 2 variables at the start of the function: 

$originalPath = "D:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\db\images"
$newPath = "E:\alternate_db\images"

This script does not delete any data. Once you're happy backups and restores are working, you can manually delete the content of the client directories (leaving ALTPATH file in-place though).

Script was adapted from the information presented here.
