On a server install you can optionally include the client package. If you have done this before applying the fixpack - it will update it to 7.0.1.9
Alternatively MQ clients are available with maintenance applied already as support pacs.
I would suggest using one approach or the other, rather than mixing them. |

Mean I need not to install MQ client 7.0.1.9 on other server.Is it right? |

No, it's not right. In an ideal world all your WMQ installations - irrespective of whether Server or Client - should be at the same level.

If you don't NEED to use MQ client on that server - you don't need to install it - obviously.
Not sure what question you are really asking here? |

Why? - shouldn't we expect the software to be back wards compatible? |

Note I stated 'ideal world' - we all know that generally there will be a mismatch across the WMQ estate.
