Netbackup Client upgrade version 6.5.x to 7.1.x

I have a few Solaris 9 and Solaris 10 clients that are still running Netbackup Client 6.5.x (I also have one solaris 8 running 6.5.x).  Can I simply upgrade these clients to the current version using the "sftp_to_client" method from the Master server running 7.1.0.4?

    Solaris 8 is not supported for 7.1

     and Solaris 9 only supports Netbackup Client.

    so you can Directly upgrade Netbackup Clients which are of Solaris 9 and 10 but not the solaris 8

    yes. using sftp you can do that..

    for checking compatablity use SORT or compatablity guide.
