The 'install_all_updates: Result = FAILURE' refers to a failure in the update_all section of the migration. For example, we are going through an alt disk migration right now and we are getting an install failure on the invscout.rte upgrade. We see that the invscout.rte is trying to execute a mkuser command , but of course this will not work during an alt_disk migration. We simply install the upgrade after the reboot as the fileset is not critical to starting the system.

We also sometimes receive the message 'grep: 0652-033 Cannot open /lpar017_alt/alt_inst/tmp/bos/dirs.moved.
/usr/sbin/nimadm1140: test: 0403-004 Specify a parameter with this command' and have successfully ignored it through numerous migrations. I would be interested in knowing what anyone else hast to say about this error.
