NetBackup does not keep catalog information for aborted backups. However, if 
you know what tape it's on, and are sure it has not been overwritten, and the 
taps is not multiplexed, you can use tar and mt to find the data. Here's the 
Faq-o-matic entry on using tar to read NetBackup tape data:

Hi,

A backup was done but someone canceled it before it was finished.  It
managed to backup about 25gb before the job was canceled.  However, a manual
backup was then followed and done to completion.  When I try to do a
restore, it only shows the data of the completed backup.  Nothing is
cataloged regarding the first canceled job. Is there anyway to restore the
25gb of backup that was backed up off the first canceled job.  Wouldn't the
data still be on the tape?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Katherine Cerqueira
