I don't have an idea how my netbackup admin fixed it. My sysadmin told
me that she did several changes at the netbackup server and also
modified the bp.conf file. After each change was made, I was asked to do
the testing, and finally it worked. 

Mike,

If everything on the netbackup server is OK, and if you just use the
following syntax in the allocate channel command at RMAN promnpt, it
should work.

Run {
allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE';
send 'NB_ORA_SERV=<netbackup ServerName>, 
      NB_ORA_POLICY=<Backup Policy/Class Name>, 
      NB_ORA_CLIENT=<alternate client Name where you will be
restoring>';
restore controlfile TO
'/usr/local/oracle/oradata/rtprod/cntrl2rtprod.ctl';
}

My Netbackup admin has resolved the Issue.

Is the media server you are trying to use in the alternate client's list
of available media servers?

I am able to restore on the same box (or same backed up client). I am
getting error message only when I try to restore the database on
alternate client. Could some one please help me in knowing what could be
wrong or how to trouble shoot the following error message?
