My simple question is that i have this file

NetBackup_7.5_LinuxS_x86_64.tar

 

and also downloaded NB_CLT_7.5.0.5 files

but donot have NB_CLT_7.5 Files

So when i will upgrade from NB 6.5.4 TO NB 7.5 ,

Will i need to have NB_CLT 7.5 Also with NetBackup_7.5_LinuxS_x86_64.tar

, can NB_CLT_7.5.0.5 will work with NetBackup_7.5_LinuxS_x86_64.tar during installation process of Linux.
 
(I am asking this because NB_CLT_7.5 Is taking time to download from Net , so as i have already downloaded NB7.5.0.5 Linux client file so asking this question,)

You don't need NB_CLT 7.5 when upgrading a Master/Media server.

You will need server and client patch after 7.5 upgrade. 
So, for 7.5.0.5 Client patch, you will also need 7.5.0.5 Server patch.

PS: Please take note that NBU must not be started directly after 7.5 upgrade. See NBU 7.x Upgrade portal: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH74584 
Patch first, then start NBU to start NBU image header migration.

Any reason why you want to patch to 7.5.0.5 and not 7.5.0.7?

you need to have the base Installer NB_CLT_7.5 , before applying the maintace pack

if you are finding deficult to downlaod, you can try for Media CD from your reseller

see the below statement

This Maintenance Release requires NetBackup 7.5 or higher be installed before applying.
