This is a MAINTENANCE Release for NetBackup (as opposed to a Release Update) - it can ONLY be applied on top of NetBackup 7.5. (If you are currently running 7.0, 7.0.1, 7.1, or 7.1.0.x, you will need to upgrade to 7.5 before you can apply 7.5.0.5.)
Please note that maintenance releases are CUMULATIVE - that means that 7.5.0.5 contains all product fixes included in 7.5.0.1, 7.5.0.2, 7.5.0.3 AND 7.5.0.4. If you are currently running NetBackup 7.5, you may apply the 7.5.0.5 maintenanace release without installing 7.5.0.1, 7.5.0.3 or 7.5.0.4. In fact, if you are still running NetBackup 7.5, we would HIGHLY encourage applying 7.5.0.5!
