Were your 5.x media servers making use of tape storage units during the time your environment was mixed mode with a 6.5.1 master server?

Yes, that is correct.  When we went to 6.5.1, we upgraded our media servers on subsequent days so we had a mixed environment for a few weeks.

I'm not quite sure in what way you're correcting me there... just that 6.0 MP1 and MP2 are unsupported? (I didn't know that, and it's good info!)
 
As near as I can tell from that document and http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/290141.htm, NetBackup 5.1 media servers are still supported (in compatibility mode) under 6.5.x. Am I incorrect?

>From the compatibility technote (
http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/264767.htm):

A NetBackup 6.5 master server will not support a NetBackup 6.0, 6.0 MP1, or 6.0 MP2 media server that has tape media configured. A change to correct this issue was made in the NetBackup 6.0 MP3 release and was carried forward to NetBackup 6.5. Therefore, Symantec will support 6.0 MP3 media servers or later with NetBackup 6.5 master servers.
