Simply mount the dvd and run 'install'. No need to remove existing version first.

Commands to mount dvd on each supported Unix OS as well as installation and upgrade steps are listed in  NBU Installation Guide for UNIX and Linux .

After that. update to 7.5.0.3.

Steps to install update are listed in the download page for 7.5.0.3 Clients software:

The 7.1 installation media (dvd) is exactly the same as the download.

The downloads have some additional steps - there is a .txt file that should downloaded along with the NBU Clients files. This .txt file tells you how to join these files and how to extract the install media with gtar (not OS tar).
See http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH154080
