    0518-307 odmdelete: 1 objects deleted. 0518-307 odmdelete: 1 objects deleted. cp: /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root: A file or directory in the path name does not exist. Failed to copy crontab to temporary file update:  Failed 
    
    while executing the bos.perf.tools.config_u script.   0503-464 installp:  The installation has FAILED 
    
    for the 
    "root" part of the following filesets: bos.perf.tools 5.3.11.2
    

    
    # lppchk -v lppchk:  The following filesets need to be installed or corrected to bring the system to a consistent state:   bos.perf.tools 5.3.11.0                 (not installed; requisite fileset) bos.perf.tools 5.3.11.0                 (not installed; requisite fileset)
    


    So many dependent software...

    
    # lppchk -vm3 2>&1|wc 2118 4265   54338
    


    ...so I can uninstall it to be able reinstall...

    The fun is that lslpp shows bos.perf.tools committed on that level...

    
    # lslpp -L bos.perf.tools Fileset                      Level  State  Type  Description (Uninstaller) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- bos.perf.tools            5.3.11.2    C     F    Base Performance Tools
    

    how to handle such weird issue and fix error on "lppchk -v"
    thx in advance,

    ok, what I did to restore the annoying issue was reinstalling system from mksysb image, created root's crontab file and upgraded AIX once again and the lppchk error is now gone.

    I didn;t try to remove some lpp stanzas from ODM's to fix the problem becasue I think it would be stupid doing it in modern OS.
