Raised a PMR Februar 2nd. and after a little back and forth with IBM
support I got silent install working for the 7.1 BA client today. There is
a document APAR which will fix the info center entry some time in the
future.

IBM has evidently just copied the info center entry from the 6.4 version to
7.1 without giving it any thought if it was correct or not. I think we
should expect more.

Solution:
The 7.1 client now uses the 2012 version instead of the 2010 version for
the vcredist thing. The paths after unpacking are:

x86:
TSMCLI_WIN\tsmcli\x64\client\Disk1\ISSetupPrerequisites\{270b0954-35ca-4324-bbc6-ba5db9072dae}
x64:
TSMCLI_WIN\tsmcli\x64\client\Disk1\ISSetupPrerequisites\{7f66a156-bc3b-479d-9703-65db354235cd
