    All filesets for 5300-01_AIX_ML were found.
    All filesets for 5300-02_AIX_ML were found.
    All filesets for 5300-03_AIX_ML were found.
    All filesets for 5300-04_AIX_ML were found.
    All filesets for 5300-05_AIX_ML were found.
    All filesets for 5300-06_AIX_ML were found.
    All filesets for 5300-07_AIX_ML were found.
    Not all filesets for 5300-08_AIX_ML were found.
    All filesets for 5300-09_AIX_ML were found.
    Do I have to upgrade to TL07 then TL08 and then TL09 or it is ok?

    Well done.

    Now use: oslevel -s
    To work out the AIX release and technology level plus service pack.

    the oslevel command should be able to show what is missing from any TL or SP:

    TL08 is known as 5300-08-00-0818 so:

    oslevel -sl 5300-08-00-0818

    or

    oslevel -rl 5300-08

    should show what is missing.

    Latest TL shows as 'All filesets for 5300-09_AIX_ML were found.' and that is what counts. You can ignore all previous entries there.

    1. instfix -icqk 5300-08_AIX_ML | grep ":-:"
