Zahid - I think the TechNote that you found is more appropriate that the one I found. Have you tried the solution that is listed at the bottom of the doc?
SOLUTION / WORKAROUND:
1. Verify if the NetBackup client is 6.5
2. Check the backup script and find the maxtransfersize value. (Incase if the script was created using NetBackup version 5.x or 6.0 the maxtransfersize is by default 0)
3. Match the maxtransfersize value in the restore script.
4. Run the restore and it should be successful.

STATUS CODE 37: SQL restore attempts fail with NetBackup Status Code 37 (operation requested by an invalid server).
Overview:
When attempting to restore a Microsoft SQL server database, the restore fails with a NetBackup Status Code 37 (operation requested by an invalid server).
Troubleshooting:
On the Windows master server, look to see if there is a directory with the same name as the SQL server in the <install_path>\veritas\netbackup\db\client directory (check in the /usr/openv/netbackup/db/client directory on a UNIX/Linux master server).
Log Files: N/A
Resolution:
All clients have the ability to browse for and restore files by default. If, however, this option is or changed, the restore attempts fail with a NetBackup Status Code 37 (operation requested by an invalid server).
The ability to browse for and restore images is set on the master sever in the NetBackup Administration Console. Open the Administration Console, and under NetBackup Management expand Host Properties. Select the master server, and in the right hand window pane, right click on the master server, and select Properties.
Figure 1
Under Properties, click on Client Attributes. If the following is displayed, no changes have been made to the client attributes, and there should be no problems with the restore.
Figure 2
If, however, the NetBackup interface is as shown in Figure 3, the ability to browse for and restore images is disabled for the specified client (in the image, client_01)
Figure 3
To re-enable the ability to browse for and restore images, simply highlight the client, and delete it from the list.
It is also possible to change this setting from the command line using the bpclient command (see the NetBackup Command Guides in related documents section below for assistance with this command)
