According to the README for patchNB_34_2:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
Added support to backup and restore NT Access Control List (ACL) and
Attribute information for files stored on the VERITAS ServPoint NAS
Appliance.
(All NetBackup Servers)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not a lot of detail, but definitely worth looking into.
