Have you tried the manual yet?

NBU for Oracle Admin Guide for UNIX, Windows, and Linux  http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC3672

Difference and archive log backups is normally visible in Overview section of the job.
There will be a 'file name' that is determined by the rman script.

If we look at the sample script supplied with NBU installation, it will probably be something like:
bk_.........  for databases
al_..........  for archive logs.

It all depends on what is specified in FORMAT string in rman scripts in your environment...

You need to use diffrent schedules in Netbackup in order to see what jobs are online backup and archive job.

e.g: 

onlien backup use schedule : oracale_online  

butarchive use schedule : oracle_archive
