I believe your 2.4 bacula-fd clients will not be able to connect to the 5.x 
director.  You'll get an error that will not tell you exactly that the 
problem is 'version skew' but that's the issue.  I believe 3.0.3 fd clients 
will be able to work with the 5.0 director and sd.  The added wrinkle to 
this is that the 5.x bacula-fd client will not properly connect to the 3.x 
director/sd, so you'll have to plan your upgrade carefully or just 
understand that you'll have to go back and update the clients that are 
failing before you'll get any more backups of them.
