You would have to manually delete those files. NetBackup doesn't have that
function AFAIK. If you are restoring an entire file system this could be
accomplished by newfs (UNIX) or a format (Windows).

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Restores from Cumulative incremental backups
I just realized my mistake in the question - I'm concerned about the files
created after last incremental and the restore, not the ones created between
full and incremental (which would obviously be backed up by incremental)
Essentially, after restore from cumulative incremental I was hoping to get an
exact state as the partition was when incremental was made - but the problem is
that if large amounts of files are created just before restore, it will fail
since there are lots of new files and no space to restore all old ones.

Hi,
I'm a bit confused now about Cumulative incremental backups - If data is
restored from last cumulative incremental backup, files that have been created
between last full and the incremental backup are not deleted by NetBackup,
which resulted in my restore failing because it run out of space on that drive-
there were too many new files created after last the incremental.
All I need is a reliable method of returning the partition to exact state as it
was when last incremental backup was taken - I was hoping True Image Backup
would do that, but it seems to have the same behaviour in regards to the files
created between full and incremental backups.
Any suggestions on this?
Thanks
