This may be a permission problem. My fuzzy memory says that we have done this 
in the past. 
By default the netbackup services run under the local SYSTEM account which has 
by default root access to the local file systems. But no special privs for 
remote file systems. You might try to change the netbackup client service to 
run under an userid that has rights over the share. Or restore to a local file 
system and copy the restored data to S:

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Is there a trick to restoring to a mapped NT drive?

We want to do an alternate path & alternate client restore for an NT
data set.

The data was originally on Server1 on the D: drive.  I want to restore
it to Server2 on the S: drive.  S is a mapped drive, a CIFS share from a
Netapp filer.

The restore process can't find the S: drive.

I tried to restore D:\ to S:\ and that didn't work.

I tried to restore D:\ to \\filername\sharename and that didn't work
either.

Is there a trick to this?
