We are running Netbackup 6.5 with HP/UX 11.23 on IA64 hardware.  We have 3 
Master servers and 3 dedicated media servers.  To ease use and administration 
we segregated the environments (1 for Unix (Solaris, HP/UX, AIX, Linux), 1 for 
Windows (2003,2008, Etc.), and our Dev/Test which comprises a mixture of 
everything.)

We have sucessfully upgraded our Dev/Test environment to 6.52a with several 
caveats.

1. Don't do this without engaging Symantec. (This will take several hops to get 
to the right people)

2. Don't do it to your production environment.

3. We needed to get 3 engineering binaries to make it useable. (NBSL, PEM 
bundle #2, and bpduplicate binary. (I can go into the gory details as a sidebar 
if needed)

4. We also needed to replace versioninfo because it kept core dumping.

This was a long painful process to get it right, but we are very happy with the 
6.52a environment we have now.  We have done a lot of testing and we are 
confident we can roll this out to the Unix and Windows production environments 
without incident.

As far as the hardware/OS portion of the equation...it's solid
