With fully-cataloged media, you can do the following:

Truncated cataloged media

Truncated cataloged media lists only backup set information. No files or file attributes can be viewed. This version of Backup Exec writes only full catalogs.

Uncataloged media

There is no catalog information for the media. You must catalog the media to view and select files to restore.
