    AnilB, i saw in below threads that Marianne had instructed you how to do this:

    https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/about-client-installation-master-server

    The command to use is: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/install_client_files 

    To use that, you must make sure those individual client softwares exist in: /usr/openv/netbackup/client/<OS>

    For example, if you want to push the Redhat Linux client software to host linuxA, you need to use:

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/install_client_files ssh  linuxA 

    (Assume ssh credential is already setup between you master server & host linuxA, and you have those files under /usr/openv/netbackup/client/Linux/RedHat*/ )

    Have a read of this. It has the answers to all of your question on remote client installation:

    NetBackup 7.6 Install Guide

    http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=DOC6447

     

    Page 105 onwards:

     

    Snippet:

    1 To move the client software from the server to the /tmp directory on the client, run the install_client_files script on the NetBackup server.

    Just wondering why you started a new discussion when your query was answered in your previous post?
