I'm a big fan of SUMA. It's not for everyone though.

rmgbelgium, I thought AIX ML packages(even with their new scheme of TL and SP) were all cumulative. So the TL9 would contain all the updates from 5200-00 through 5200-08. On IBM's download site you can select 5200-00 as your current oslevel.

run the command oslevel -rq this will give you a list of known Recommended Maintenance Levels. Then run the command oslevel -rl 5200-08 it will tell you what fix is holding you at 5200-06.
I updated my system from 5200-04 to 5200-08 in one shot. Going to 5200-09 have 1 file holding me to 5200-08. Hope this helps you.
