I didn't really get a resolution to the above problem. However, I changed the mode of backup from vbb to dump.

From the VNX NDMP guide:

" VNX File Deduplication and Compression-enabled file systems can be backed up by using

VBB and restored, using the full destructive restore (FDR) method. Backing up a deduplicated

file system does not cause any data reduplication, because VBB operates at the block level

(while preserving the history of the files it backs up). The data in the file system is backed

up in its reduced form. The benefits of the space-saving storage efficiency realized in the

production file system, from compression and file-level deduplication, flow into backups.

However, a file-by-file restore of space-reduced files from VBB backups is not supported.

It is recommended that a file-by-file restore be performed by using local or remotely replicated

checkpoints using VNXSnapSure, and not from tape. "

You cannot perform a file-by-file restore from your VBB backup, but you would be able to do so from a tar or dump style backup.

Let us know if that helps!
