If using the GUI, no need :-)
Um... that's not how bpplclients works, Randy. The user must

I
don’t think adding a new client is an issue. If I remember correctly, the
default selection is for NetBackup to ask the client what OS is loaded. So
if the lines of communication are open (and they should be) the OS should
self-populate. But you’re right, most of my discrepancies are from years
of upgrades and no one tells the tape dude.

I think you may have that backwards but that's besides
the point.
I actually have a formal change request into Symantec on this
one - the backup admin should not be telling NetBackup what the OS type is when
there's a NetBackup client sitting out there that knows exactly what it
is.
This gets even uglier when you have the client in multiple policies
(common for clusters) and you have to keep them all updated on a regular
basis. And I'm just willing to bet at least a cup of coffee that the vast
majority of backup admins aren't told when an OS is
upgraded.
