    Hi

    I have a 7026-B80 and I installed the latest 5.3 version which I view from the website is supported. I tried to patch to TL9 but preview fails. I installed the remaining components and check the oslevel and it is only at TL8 SP2. Any idea how I can bring it up to TL 9 as I only have partial filesets installed for TL9. I tried installed TL8 SP4 but preview fails and there seems to be prompting a lot of prequisite filesets for TL8 SP4. Also the same case for TL9, prompting for a lot of missing filesets. I am not sure where to find the filesets are there are too many! Kindly advise. Thanks.

    If you don't have 2.7 gig of data in the directory where you download the updates, you did not download the right thing.

    I downloaded the TL and the SP separately. I thought of patching the TL first followed by the SP. I will download the TL and the SP as a whole then and try. Can i jump straight to TL8 SP4 and then to TL9 in this case?

    Can I patch TL8 with SP4 as a whole and then I patch TL9 without the SP. Can it work this way? Thanks.
