Can I just upgrade only the master server to 3.4 without upgrading the
clients to that level and then upgrade the master server to 4.5  and finally
upgarde the clients to 4.5? without installing the 3.4 client binaries ?

Good point, the upgrade path would be 3.2 to 3.4 to 4.5, so you'll
need the 3.4 media regardless.

The differences between 3.2 and 3.4 can be found in the release notes:

ackup_release_notes_232334.pdf 

[See also NetBackup_Release_Notes_3.4.1_235054.pdf]

P.S.  I think Solaris 8 was added to 3.2 in a patch.
