Are NetBackup certificates backed up

For security reasons, NetBackup certificates are not backed up during backups. Certificates are automatically deleted when NetBackup is uninstalled. If required, you can manually back them up along with the respective private keys before you uninstall NetBackup.

See Retaining host ID-based certificates when reinstalling NetBackup on non-primary hosts.
