It will update the version file only if the patch was run on the client
itself. Media and Master servers will all contain valid MP information.

I usually run the update_clients script and push the MP out to all
clients (all of the environments under my support are UNIX only) after
patching the master server. Also, if a client has software manually
installed on it (instead of being pushed from the master server), I will
run the update_clients after that has been done as well.

Many of the clients won't have it anyway....Netbackup doesn't not
consistantly update the version files with MPs.
