Someone knows why I can't do granular restores.
Master Server version 7.1
Client version 7.1
AD: Windows Server 2008 R2.

Active Directory granular NetBackup restores are supported on the following systems:
Windows 2003 R2 SP2
Windows 2008
Windows 2008 R2
To perform Active Directory granular backups and restores, ensure that you meet the following requirements:
The master server, the media server, and clients must all have NetBackup 6.5.4 or later installed. And, all must be at the same level.
The Network File System (NFS) must be installed on the media server and all Active Directory domain controllers or ADAM/LDS hosts.
The NetBackup Client Service must be configured to log on as an account with domain privileges.
To perform granular backups and restores of the Active Directory, the NetBackup Legacy Client Service (bpinetd) must run under the domain administrator account on the Active Directory domain controller or ADAM server. By default, bpinetd runs under the Local System account.

Can you show us the disk storage unit of the policy? Note that GRT won't work for tape backup.
If you have set to DSU, but it's still not backing up granularly, a warning message would normally appear in the job details. Enable bpbkar log in the client, increase verbose to 5, run a backup to check if GRT backup is run correctly.

This is the info:

Can't really see the definition - but you confirm it's DSU (disk-based) then we can move forward.
Can you get a verbose bpbkar log for the successful backup to see whether it reports any issue cataloging the GRT info?
