Restore is done from the same media server from which the backup ran.
Is this true in NBU 7.x?
Above is true till what version of NBU?

But we have 7.1 in our environment.But backup runs on other media server and restore is done frm other media server?
PLEASE always share ALL relevant details when you open a post. Such as the fact that you are using Data Domain with OST backups.
OST Restore behaviour is described in this TN: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH87200
Fixed by creating this touch-file on the master:
touch /usr/openv/netbackup/db/config/USE_BACKUP_MEDIA_SERVER_FOR_RESTORE

So below statement is true for all NBU versions?
Restore is done from the same media server from which the backup ran.

Why so?

probably because you have a force_restore_media_server setting in bp.conf on the master (or registry if windows).
if you did as i suggested and looked at the reasons nbu would not behave as default you would find this out for yourself.

I am using OST and my STU is any available media server, in these cases backup can go to any media server and so as the restore. If restore is working fine your job is done, don't make any changes which might corrupt the environment.
