Local Client Installation

We are having some issues with Netbackup realizing that the root password we are typing is correct when trying to do the install_client_files ssh method. When prompted for the root password info we type it in and then it says its incorrect, but we can Ctrl + C out of that and immediately ssh to the server and use the same password and it works. I plan on looking into why that is no longer working since upgrading to 7.7.1, but for the immediate issue I plan to do the client install locally. My question is can I just upload the AIX binaries that I need as oppposed to uploading the entire Clients1 zip? If so what do I need to run in order to execute the client install?

what we've done is copy directory contents to the client

/usr/openv/netbackup/client/<ClientOS>

 

then run this on the client

cd /usr/openv/netbackup/client/<ClientOS>

./cp_to_client  <MASTERNAME> <CLIENTNAME>
