I have an install of Symantec NetBackup 7.5 and I want to restore the server from a NetBackup image file.

The file was created using NetBackup before I arrived. We had a hardware failure that corrupted this server and it needed to be rebuilt, now we want to restore from this image file.

I can't for the life of me figure out how to restore from that file. I've installed the NetBackup application but it can't find the file when using the restore command within the application. If I double-click the file it opens the application then gives me the same "can't find any NetBackup files" error. I also can't simply drag the file into the NetBackup window.

Any advice on how I restore from this file would be appreciated, thank you.
