Dumb question - which NBU 7.5 client would I install on a Solaris SPARC client? And is it included with the other clients (NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS) or is it mixed in with the SPARC server install files (NetBackup_7.5_Solaris_Sparc64.tar.gz)?
Thanks,
Wayne

NetBackup_7.5_Solaris_Sparc64.tar.gz is the Server install package.
All Unix/Linux Clients (Solaris as well) are included in NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.
Please take note of 'gtar' requirement to extract the installation files.

Let's pull up the O/S CL and see what it says:
On page 56, it says....oh dear, did you tell us WHICH version of Solaris you were running? Well, it's either Solaris/Solaris9 or Solaris/Solaris10 (Hopefully Solaris/Solaris10 as footnotes indicate we're dropping the Solaris 9 client in version 7.6 - after all, Oracle started to end-o-life Solaris 9 several years ago! The "Solaris10" client can be used on Solaris 10 OR 11, as noted here in this CL.)
All clients should be in the CLIENTS distribution, including the Solaris ones. That's the one you will want to grab. (The other one, you would only want for a server installation.)
