Chris-
I stand corrected.
If you ONLY install client software via "install_client_files" on the
master (with no subsequent "update_clients -InstallJava" or updating
of software via the GUI), then there is no jnbSA installed.
But if you install any other way (like a client install using the
locally-mounted CDROM), then you will get jnbSA along with the normal
client install.
That teaches me to think about NetBackup when I'm off the clock!
