There is a re-relase of the media for Windows 2008 64 and Windows 2003 64: NB_6.5.4.Winx64_CD.exe NB_CLT_6.5.6.Win2008SC.x64.exe The question I have is we already have Windows 2003 64 and Windows 2008 64 clients. Do I use this patch or the regular 6.5.6 patch for the 6.5.3 severs/clients already installed? What happens with media servers becase it looks like this patch is just for clients.

NOTE:  Do not install this CD image for existing NetBackup Windows x64 Server or Client installations as this CD is for NEW NetBackup Installs only.  This CD image SHOULD NOT be used as a Release Update to perform an upgrade.  Please install the NetBackup 6.5.4 Windows x64 Release Update.

You will just want to install the normal patch for upgrading servers or clients.

NB_CLT_6.5.6.Win2008SC.x64.exe is for Windows 2008 Server Core ONLY.

Assuming they're all X64, I think the one you REALLY want for your existing servers AND clients is this one:

Release Update NB_6.5.6.winnt.x64.exe provides fixes to the Veritas NetBackup (tm) Enterprise Server / Server 6.5 on x64 Windows server and clients. It also contains fixes for NetBackup Add-on products and Database Agents.
