Restore from FlashBackup fails with error 2817 - Netbackup

Client name is case sensitive in Netbackup. When specifying the client in "Backup, Archive and Restore" the name has to match the name in the client list of the backup policy (ie. serverA is not equal to SERVERA). Failure to do so is another reason of error 2817 while restoring the file backed up by FlashBackup policy. More on this: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH188002
