3.  Mention the NetBackup Master name in the “Server to use for backup and
restores” drop down box. By default the entry will be there, and NEVER
change the server entry! Doing so will cause all subsequent backups and
restores to fail on that master.
 Mention the client name, the one for which you are running the restore in the
“Source client for restores” drop down box. If it is not present add the Client
name from the Edit Client list tab.
 Mention the client name, the one to which you want to restore in the
“Destination client for restores” drop down box and click “O.K” once you
made the selection. By default this will be the same as source client. If you
want to restore to a different client use the Edit Client list tab and do the
modifications.
 From the Backup, Archive and Restore Console go to File Menu and click
‘Select Files and Folders to Restore…’ and click ‘from Normal Backup…’
 If you see the following information popup, please follow directions below.

type for restores” in the “Specify NetBackup Machines and Policy Type,

window. Full Backups are represented by a green circle, incrementals are

is needed.
 If you want to select a range of backups. Click on the top left "incremental
backups" restore while holding down the "shift" key. Click on the bottom
right "full backups". By doing this you have selected the full from the 26th

left side of the console and place a check mark on that.
