After running the profile again the /tmp/sugi directory is created on the client, however it just contains an empty misc directory.

Entries in the .bashrc file for the user performing the profile may be causing scp to fail.

Check the .bashrc file in the home directory of the user running the Management Console for Unix profile attempt.

Look for any non-standard entries that might try to print a message to the screen during logon.

Note that the same issue has also been seen when the following sudo entry was in the .bashrc file:
sudo su


These entries will cause the scp of the required Management Console for Unix scripts to fail.

Remove any added entries one at a time to determine which is causing the scp process to fail
