    Hi folks,

    I've tried to update my AIX system 5.3 today from TL9 to TL12. I did download all the needed prerequisites from IBM download website.

    The upgrade went fine ( that's what i thought first ), but when I ran the "oslevel -s" command, I had a nice surprise :

    root@xxxxxxx:/home/root # oslevel -s
    5300-11-08-1140
    root@xxxxxxx:/home/root #

    When checking at bos.* Flisets version with lslpp command, I'm getting the right version ( 5.3.12 ), even if some are differents ... For example bos.mp version is 5.3.12.5 ( which is the target expected ), and bos.rte is 5.3.12.1, but I don't know if it's relevant.

    Does anyone already experienced this kind of issue ?

    Thanks for your help
    David

    One or more of your packages is down-rev and it could be something that isn't in the base OS.

    Try this:

    instfix -ciqk 5300-12_AIX_ML | grep ":-:"

    Anything that shows up would be a fileset you still need to update.

    Hi,

    Use the Oslevel command to find the fileset which are at lower version.

    oslevel -rl 5300-12

    <this will list the lower version fileset >

    Thanks,

    Hello,

    Thanks for the hint. That confirm that both packages listed previsouly need to be update from 1.2.0.1 to 1.2.1 . I have already downloaded both packages and waiting for the green light from my business to proceed

    Cheers
