    I got a couple of failed prereqs prior a oracle 11g upgrade on AIX 6100-02-02-0849.
    Missing patches is: IZ418855, IZ51456 and IZ52319
    Missing products is: rsct.basic.rte and rsct.compat.clients.rte

    My question is, what would be the fastest and simpliest way to find and install these one by one, without having to upgrade the whole TL/SP-level.

    (Then I can plan for upgrading the whole TL/SP later)

    Hello Orphy,

    Thanks for your reply. You see, i'm not that familiar to the AIX patching routine. Do I relly have to download a whole base CD/DVD to install this? (is that true for BOTH the missing file-sets and patches?).

    If so, for my relase, where do I download the cd's?

    I would also need to have some ide of the installation procdure. The god thing is that I have cloned a couple of sandbox systems to start with.

It depends on whether you have the entitlement support for downloading the CDs/DVD but they'll be able to step you through. You wouldn't be able to apply those APARs without the base filesets already installed. Once you have the base filesets installed, you can download the patches from FixCentral or just google the APAR and it'll get you there. The APARs would contain install instructions.
