Instead of trying to restore to a mapped drive
why not change the destination client of the restore?
In the Backup, Archive & Restore GUI, select File/Specify NetBackup Machines & Policy type. In the window, select "Server to use for backups & restores" (your Master server), "Source client for restores", "Destination client for restores" & "Policy type for restores".
Just thought: You haven't said what O/S your clients are running, so this may still be an issue.

F:\XXXX\: This the source data of X server.
Y:\ : This is the destination path to restore the data of X server.( this the drive mapped of Y server in the master/ X server to restore the data)
Please advice
Thanks in advance
Is this Y: drive mapped to the Y client?
I'm presuming it is, so I'd go back to my original answer.
In the BAR GUI:
source client would be X (or specifically ncsjptonbu01.ap.jnj.com with path F:/oradata)
destination client would be Y with path "whatever path you want to restore to on client Y"
This saves "messing" around mapping drives - more direct & achieves the same thing.

It might be a permission
It might be a permission issue on the mapped drive.
NetBackup will try to access the mapped drive as the logon account used for the NetBackup Client Service. The default is LocalSystem which will not have access.
Change the logon account to a domain user with write access on the source server.
Logon as the user starting the NBU client service and see if you are able to create folders on drive Y.
Ensure you have a tar log directory on the client you are restoring to.
