i found this somewhere on a symantec website/forum dated 2009:

"the reason has to do that the full backup image is being mounted and browsed 
to extract the item.  With incremental or differential backups there isn't a 
full image so it requires extra development to generate a synthetic backup 
image on the fly for browsing all the GRT items.  The good news is that you can 
still have 1 Exchange policy in NetBackup with a full and differential (or 
incremental) schedule.  It's only when you browse to do the restore that you 
won't be able to "crack open" the incremental/differential backups to browse 
for items. We hope to have that in a future NetBackup release.

Sr. Product Manager, NetBackup
Symantec"


does anybody know the status of this?  are incremental grt restores working in 
7.1 or will it be a feature in 8.0?  or is it just unfeasible to implement?

thanks,
jerald
