We're about to do the same thing. The approach I'm taking is a phased upgrade. I'm going to upgrade all the 5.2 clients to 5.3 (because you can still backup reliably with 5.3 client to 5.2 server) then upgrade the server to 5.4 or 5.5.x then upgrade the clients to 5.5 to get everything up to the right level. I remember seeing a matrix in one of the server readme files, or on the IBM doc site. I remember reading that the highest reliable client for backups for 5.2 was 5.3.x See Ya' Howard
