According to the latest 5.x compatibility list (http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/263839.htm), 64-bit support (both for AMD64 as PC-X64 "hardware" and Itanium as PC-IA64) is present with NetBackup 5.1MP4 and later, which is somewhat reassuring because the Windows SAs are in the process of rolling out 64-bit Windows servers on AMD chips at my employer.
 
There is one problem, though: I don't have install media more recent than 5.1 GA (which gets installed and then MP5 layered over it through their software distribution mechanism), which means that I don't think I even have the 64-bit binaries.
 
Am I right in believing that I need to open a service call to get the appropriate installers? (The closest I could get was http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/283089.htm, but that's just the x64 MP5 patch, not the baseline x64 binaries.)
