Hello,
It does not matter. MSEO is a different program than netbackup and does not
follow the netbackup versioning.
Be careful because, as Dave said, your backup will be slower almost x2 and
if you use MSEO compression, another x2. (depending of the CPU of the media
server)
Note that, you will lose the hardware tape compression and your will need x2
tapes. Also do not use client compression.

Unfortunately, this particular NBU environment is running LTO2 drives.
I'm sure we'll upgrade the library eventually. I didn't know KMS was
free. I'll keep this in mind for future installations.
One follow up question. The environment in which I'm setting up MSEO
is currently running 6.5. I plan on upgrading it to 7.0 in the next 6
months. Which would be better:
1) Upgrade to 7.0 first, then install and configure MSEO
2) Go ahead and install MSEO and get it running. In a few months,
upgrade to NBU 7 and deal with any MSEO upgrade issues at that point.
