    FAILURES

    Filesets listed in this section failed pre-installation verification
    and will not be installed.
    Requisite Failures

    SELECTED FILESETS: The following is a list of filesets that you asked to
    install. They cannot be installed until all of their requisite filesets
    are also installed. See subsequent lists for details of requisites.
    NOTE: One or more fileset updates in this list are flagged with "*".
    These updates supersede (i.e., replace) updates which you
    selected. Newer level fileset updates will always be
    automatically chosen instead of the fileset updates they
    supersede when the "auto-install" option (i.e., "AUTOMATICALLY
    install requisite software" or -g flag) is specified.

    MISCELLANEOUS FAILING REQUISITES: The following filesets are requisites
    of one or more of the selected filesets listed above. Various problems
    associated with these requisites are preventing the selected filesets
    from installing. See the "Requisite Failure Key" for failure reasons and
    possible recovery hints.

    Requisite Failure Key:
    "#" partially installed fileset (i.e., the "usr" and "root" parts
    are not both installed).
    Use software listing facilities (lslpp command) to determine which
    parts are missing. If the "usr" part is missing, reject (or remove/
    deinstall) the fileset so that it may be re-installed. If the "root"
    part is missing, request that the fileset be installed again, and the
    "root" part will be installed.
    AVAILABLE REQUISITES: You specified that requisite software should be
    automatically installed. Additional filesets (1) would have been
    installed automatically had the selected filesets passed all requisite
    checks.

    WARNINGS

    Problems described in this section are not likely to be the source of any
    immediate or serious failures, but further actions may be necessary or
    desired.

    Superseded Fileset Updates

    Fileset updates listed in this section will not be installed. Newer
    updates which supersede (replace) these were selected instead (either by
    you or automatically by the installation program). Make sure that the
    superseding updates listed passed pre-installation verification.

    /tmp 43952 1573920



    TOTAL: 46848 3233480

    NOTE: "Needed Space" values are calculated from data available prior
    to installation. These are the estimated resources required for the
    entire operation. Further resource checks will be made during
    installation to verify that these initial estimates are sufficient.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

    One or more of the selected filesets will cause a bosboot to be performed.
    The bosboot command will rebuild the boot image. As a result it may
    be necessary to reboot your system for the changes to take effect.
    It is recommended that you reboot the system as soon as possible
    after the installation of this software to avoid disruption of
    current functionality.

    So you are getting some requisite error. What is your question? The output of what you posted shows that AIX seems to think you have partially installed filesets. Have you checked? Did you attempt to install something earlier and it didn't complete? You posted some output but no question or any details about the state of your installation.
