    That's the rule from Symantec Compatibility Guide

     

    Here's another take on it

    • Media and Client server backwards compatibility extends only one major release behind the master server.  A NetBackup 7.0 Master is compatible with 6.x media and client system, however, NetBackup 5.x and earlier systems are not compatible.
