At least with the netapp boxes there are limits. 
The restore feature came with the 4.5 fp3, but the backup had to occur at some 
level of 4.5 or higher in order to save the tape index for the tape data in the 
netbackup catalog. 

The netapp dar support with netbackup 4.5 and 5 is only for files and not for 
restores of directories.

Also DAR isn't supported on every NDMP appliance.
Of course it is supported on Netapp.

Support for this is in 4.5 (either FP3 or 6, can't remember when it hit).
It has to be explicitly turned on and only backups done post-activation will
take advantage of it.
