    NetBackup 6.5.x was the last to support 32-bit Linux OS. 
    I doubt that compatibility lists or NBU client software for this version is still available - support ended somewhere around 2012.

    Backing up NBU 6.x clients is not supported with NBU 8.x servers.

    You sysadmins really need to migrate to 64-bit OS or they need to virtualize these 32-bit servers.
    You can then back them up with a VMware policy.
