do a single restore for all dates. this will limit the amount of data
restored and reduce tape mounts.
if your backup was broken into multiple streams and you know what they
were, do a restore for each stream (still keeping a single restore for the
entire date range for that stream). doing this you can have multiple
restores, at the same time, to the same box, coming from different tapes
or from the same tape at the same time (concurrent!!!) if the data is
mpx'd together and the restores are started within the mpx restore delay
timeout.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Many questions on netbackup (3.4)
Hi all,
I started working on netbackup (3.4 datacenter) for about 2 months now. I
worked on similar products (omniback, arcserve/alexandra). I have few
questions on how we achieve (or possible) in netbackup.
1) On restore how do we know the size of restore before submitting (I
guess no preview on 3.4)?.
2) If we are trying to restore a full backup and subsequent incrementals,
should we need to submit multiple restore for each date or single job can
restore all dates?.
3) Is there any setting on netbackup to automatically overwrite on new
datestamp or size?.
One more last question:
I have a exchange backup which is backing 4 information store each as a
new stream. Sometime if one fails, my resubmission again kicks of all 4. I
need to kill other jobs. Is there any command line option in bpbackup to
submit for one stream only?.
Thanks for your help,
Mani Vasagan
