I'm not familiar with the latest versions of NetBackup, but I don't
think you can set these types of rules. If you have enough disk space
to hold what you wanted to restore, I would create a new directory, do
your restore there, then script something to put the files back the
way you want them.
The rsync utility has some good tools for merging data.
