Some examples in a TN, forum article and post.

I like the article as it starts with bplist. 
If you can list the backups, then restore should be easy.
I would personally add a value after -R (something like 3 to only list 3 levels).

As you can see from the command usage, there are so many options that trying to figure out what will work in your environment is usually a matter of trial and error...

Hint:
Confirm that bprd log exists.
This log is important as it shows how NBU interprets your command(s).
If the folder does not exist, please create it and restart NBU.
