>From the NetBackup 6.5 Installation Guide for
Unix, p. 14:

    Symantec does not support installation of
    NetBackup in an NFS-mounted directory. File
    locking in NFS-mounted file systems can be 
    unreliable.

p. 30

    Note: Symantec does not support installing
    the EMM on an NFS-mount.

>From the NetBackup 6.5 Admin Guide for Windows, p.
347, discussing catalog backup to disk:

    The NetBackup binary image catalog is more
    sensitive to the location of the catalog.
    Catalog backups that are stored on a remote
    file system may have critical performance
    issues. NetBackup does not support saving
    catalogs to a remote file system such as
    NFS or CIFS.

p. 349, regarding relocating the image catalog:  

    Note: NetBackup does not support saving the
    catalog to a remote file system. Therefore,
    Symantec advises against moving the image
    catalog to a remote file system such as NFS
    or CIFS.
