We use Netbackup for Transarc AFS and OpenAFS backup. It works fine but
quite slow, because Netbackup runs vos listvol first, than creates
backup volumes. With AFS restore you can not restore individual files or
directories.
Only AFS volume restore is supported. Even if you need a single file you
need to find a volume first, restore it to alternative name, mount (fs
mkm) and than copy that file out.

Thanks,
Alex
