Hello,
I've migrated AIX 5.3 to 6.1 and installe latest TL6 SP1 and have one filesets on lower level:

# oslevel -r -l 6100-06 Fileset                                 Actual Level           Recommended ML ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- bos.loc.iso.ko_KR                       5.3.11.0               6.1.6.0

Now, when I go to installation media DVD I see no such base fileset avaialble 6.1.0.0...

# installp -L -d . | grep KR | grep loc #

It is also not seen in TL6 but is seen in TL3:

# installp -L -d . | grep KR | grep loc bos.loc.iso:bos.loc.iso.ko_KR:6.1.3.0::S:T:::::N:Base System Locale ISO Code Set - Korean::::0:0920:

Of course I can't install that from TL6 bacause I need base 6.1.0.0 which I don;t know where to get it from if it is not present on DVD install media.

I also can't uninstall this fileset on that migrated system due to one prerequisite printers.hplj-4000_KR.rte which is uninstallable:

Non-Deinstallable Filesets -------------------------- The following filesets were selected 

for deinstallation.  Deinstallability checks indicate that they should not be removed from the system.   printers.hplj-4000_KR.rte   Pre-installation Failure/Warning Summary ---------------------------------------- Name                      Level           Pre-installation Failure/Warning ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- printers.hplj-4000_KR.rte                 Failed pre-deinstallation check

No reason is said why it cannot be uninstalled - just says that "Deinstallability
checks indicate that they should not be removed from the system."
Any idea hot to rid off or upgrade this annoying fileset? Where to get bos.loc.iso.ko_KR on level 6.1.0.0?

Thank you in advance.

one more info. of course such filesets on base level 6.1.0.0 for other languages are present on install media DVD - example:

# installp -L -d . | grep bos.loc.iso.ko # installp -L -d . | grep bos.loc.iso.sr bos.loc.iso:bos.loc.iso.sr_SP:6.1.0.0::I:T:::::N:Base System Locale ISO Code Set - Serbian Cyrillic::::0:0747: bos.loc.iso:bos.loc.iso.sr_SP:6.1.0.0::I:T:::::N:Base System Locale ISO Code Set - Serbian Cyrillic::::0:0747: bos.loc.iso:bos.loc.iso.sr_YU:6.1.0.0::I:T:::::N:Base System Locale ISO Code Set - S. Cyr. (Yugoslavia)::::0:0747: bos.loc.iso:bos.loc.iso.sr_YU:6.1.0.0::I:T:::::N:Base System Locale ISO Code Set - S. Cyr. (Yugoslavia)::::0:0747:

This link whould also mean that there must be somewhere 6.1.0.0 for it....

at least uninstallation issue has been fixed - the hidden complains of installp were linked to existing print queues in the system. after I removed them uninstallation was possible.
the laast question to be answered why on base install media there not all loc files (the mentioned ko_KR in my example ..). Any hero who knows how this stuff works that complains about somethin what even doesn't exist install media)?

I've had a similar problem, needed bos.loc.iso.es_ES on a new AIX 6.1 system but couldn't find it when trying to install it from the installation media.

I first tried with smit installp from both DVD 1 and 2 from installation media. I also took a look at .toc file, but couldn't find it.

Finally I mounted second installation DVD, and listing the content of /<cdrom>/usr/sys/inst.images I saw a file called bos.loc.iso.es, but when trying smit installp it didn't show up.

So I installed it running installp command:

installp -a -c -d /mnt/cdrom/usr/sys/inst.images -Y bos.loc.iso.es_ES

Don't know if I was doing something wrong, or if there is a problem with my version of AIX 6.1 installation DVDs (perhaps a wrong .toc file), but it's the first time I see something similar.

I know this post is old, but I post it here for future reference.
