VCB backup is definitely supported in NBU 6.5.1, What is not supported is running a NBU Master or Media Server within a VMware Virtual Machine. Here's a White Paper on Best Practices for backing up VMware with NBU http://eval.symantec.com/mktginfo/enterprise/white_papers/ent-whitepaper

Gabe, NetBackup 6.5 is huge feature release, not a Maintenance Pack for NBU 6.0. NBU 6.5 adds things like SAN Client, a new Open Disk API for better support of Storage and VTL's. When PureDisk 6.5 comes out, it will support PureDisk media servers, etc. It is a huge feature release.

That is correct, you do have to upgrade your 3.4.1 Servers to NBU 4.5 before going to 5.X and the 6.0. Clients of course can go straight to 6.0, as long as the OS version is still supported. Here is the document that explains what is supported: http://support.veritas.com/docs/264767
