How configure NBU7.5 client in Solaris 10 sparcx64

Hi Guys. I installed NBU client on a Sparc Solaris 7.5, but can not remember how to configure it. I remember I added the name of Master and media server to a file, but I do not remember...

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf

     

    SERVER = master

    SERVER = media

    Yeah, I thought that directory list looked odd. 

    After removing the server installation, you want the client software.

    Per the NB_7.5files.txt

     NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.1of3 UNIX Clients  [split]
            [MD5:8dfd798f7ae84e7130a9c1dc8c9aa97f]

     NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.2of3 UNIX Clients   [split]
            [MD5:bbfeca1c4b297fd92d7d71f411fe283f ]

     NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.3of3 UNIX Clients   [split]
            [MD5:dbcde68d73437af47ae5b3f1fe2840b9 ]

     

    Before you uncompress any file, you must first join the split packages, that
    you can identify as ".1of2" and ".2of2". Perform either of the following
    procedures to join the respective .tar.gz files or the .zip files together on
    UNIX, Windows, or LiveUpdate clients.

    To join NetBackup 7.5 UNIX clients
    ----------------------------------

    1. Download all similarly prefixed image files, for example, "_tar-gz.1of2" and
       "_tar-gz.2of2".

    2. Run the appropriate command to join the .tar.gz files together:

       - On UNIX systems:
         cat "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.1of3" "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.2of3"  "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.3of3" > "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar.gz"

       - On Windows systems:
         copy /b "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.1of3"+"NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.2of3"+"NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.3of3" "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar.gz"

    3. Use an md5sum command to ensure that your number matches the below provided
       value.

         md5sum  NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar.gz =  24844689e219d3c467e884fb5737101b

         Also, the "Size" value is: XX GB (XX bytes)

       NOTE: You can download the MD5sum utilities from many sites, choose one that
       you trust.

    4. After you have successfully joined the files, you are ready to uncompress the
       packages.

    I was actually referring to the Readme file on FileConnect with joining instructions. 

    Ftp the 3 files to the Solaris server in binary mode, join as per the Readme, then unzip and extract using gtar:  

    gzcat NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar.gz | /usr/sfw/bin/gtar xvf -

    See:

    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH154080

    Now run the install script.
