    The HACMP installation is failing with following pre-requisites

    bos.net.nfs.client 5.3.7.0
    bos.net.nfs.server 5.3.7.0
    nv6000.base.obj 4.1.2.0

    1) From where i can get nv6000.base.obj ? I have AIX 5.3 7/2007 version (8 CDs) in my hand, i have searched all the CDs but i did not found. From where i can get this package for AIX 5.3 ?

    2) The HACMP installation complaining about bos.net.nfs.server/client. But i have these two installed.
    bos.net.nfs.client 5.3.0.61
    bos.net.nfs.server 5.3.0.50

    Is this because of the version mismatch ? Do i have to upgrade TL 8 or 9 to get bos.net.nfs.client/server 5.3.7.0 ?

    Thanks for help.

    Sounds like you're trying to install the cluster.es.nfs fileset which was added in HA 5.4.1.
    I would imagine the pre-req for that is the TL7 level nfs......can't recall off the top of my head.

    Your TL is very old anyway, would probably be better to get to a much later TL overall. If you don't intend on using NFS integration with HA 5.4.1 then you can de-select the cluster.es.nfs fileset.

    When you do the install just select cluster.es.server.rte it should pull in the appropriate pre-reqs for a basic install.....I would take a guess that you are selecting filesets from the HA install media that you don't need.

    However on the installation media the release notes mentioned "AIX 5L 5.3 ML4 with RSCT version 2.4.5 (APAR IY84920) or higher". The release notes mentioned ML4, but in my server ML6 is present.

    Hello,
    the fileset nv6000.base.obj is required only if you select the PowerHA filesets called 'cluster.haview'. You need this only if you are already using the Netview product for monitoring.

    If you aren't using Netview, don't select cluster.haview and it will not require the nv6000.base.obj fileset.

    Thanks, Claudio.
