  • 1.  How to get missing filesets?

    Hi,

    I have install CD's for AIX 5.3 from February 2005 and they install ok (with some missing filesets which I find surprising). Afterwards I try to upgrade to Technology Level (TL) 6, and the TL 6 upgrade complains about missing base level filesets. After reading the forums it seems that the install CD's dated 10/2005 and later have the missing filesets.

    Is there any way or any place I can download the missing filesets from the web?

    Here are the missing filesets:

    bos.adt.libmio 5.3.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
    csm.hpsnm 1.4.1.0 # Base Level Fileset
    devices.pci.df1023fd.rte 5.3.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
    devices.pciex.14103903.diag 5.3.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
    devices.pciex.14103903.rte 5.3.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
    rsct.opt.saf.amf 2.4.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
    rsct.opt.storagerm 2.4.0.0 # Base Level Fileset

    Thank you for any help.

    bos.adt.libmio 5.3.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
    rsct.opt.saf.amf 2.4.0.0 # Base Level Fileset

    I can't find any information on bos.adt.libmio.
    I do see information on rsct.opt.saf.amf, but the closest version to 2.4.0.0 is 2.4.6.1.

    Can somebody provide some clues as to how I might find these filesets? Could they be extracted from another aix box and installed on this one? We have a few other aix boxes here I could "borrow" from.

    Oh, I was slightly mistaken, I do see some information on bos.adt.libmio, but the version I see available is nowhere near the base fileset version I need.

    I need version 5.3.0.0

    AIX 5.3
    Fileset/Version Fix pack
    bos.adt.libmio.5.3.8.0 5300-08
    bos.adt.libmio.5.3.7.0 5300-07
    bos.adt.libmio.5.3.0.60 5300-06

    If you have the entitlement, you can download the AIX ISOs which should give you the filesets you are missing.

    Do you know if you actually need those filesets? The complaint came from applying TL6 right? If you don't really need those filesets, can you not just do an update_all instead?

    I don't think I have entitlement, we don't have a support contract anymore.

    What is an update_all?
