1) Do a normal "/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/install_client_files ftp
<client>" to some Solaris 10 box in your environment.
2) On the client you'll now have a /tmp/bp directory on the client
with all the needed files and stuff you need to automate future
installs.
3) Hack the /tmp/bp/bin/client_config script to do automatic
configuration of the CLIENT_NAME, REQUIRED_INTERFACE, other desired
bp.conf entries, exclude_list, etc.
4) Copy in any additional files needed to support your hacking
(i.e. exclude_list file, etc) to /tmp/bp
4) tar up /tmp/bp and then you can use your favorite method to move
the tarball onto any client that needs to be installed, untar it, then
just run your hacked client_config script to automatically do the
install and client configuration.
I will say you have to re-hack the client_config script at each new
NetBackup version, or at least check it to make sure they haven't
added/removed any files to/from the install, but otherwise it's been
working pretty well here. I now have install tarballs I can get loaded
onto any of our UNIX clients and Joe-SA can run a single command to do
all the needed configuration. And my favorite part, I didn't have to
start from scratch. =)

I have had some good responses and a couple of scripts passed to me so
