Here is the NetBackup Operating System Compatibility guide 7.x

This should help you.

The compatibility lists for 7.x and release notes for 7.5 are all here

If your question relates to backward compatibility check the release notes specifically. ie Mixed Master and Media and Client versions.

Another useful site is The Symantec Operations Readiness Tools (SORT): sort.symantec.com. This is a good location to check for information when you are doing an upgrade.

you can select NetBackup from the pull-down list and create a checklist for your version upgrades and platforms.
