Hi

I'm trying to install HACMP 53 on AIX 5.3 TL7. However, the install fails complaining about missing HACMP filesets. Is there a special procedure for installing HACMP? I've got the original disks. I can't understand how it expects HACMP filesets as a pre-req when this a brand new install?!?!

Thanks in advance for all assistance

 
Yes you need the rct filesets from the AIX discs, but be aware that you will need both the Base filesets and also ones that make up TL7. If you only put on the basefilesets then you are in danger of setting your oslevel below TL7.
 
Thanks for your help

Unfortunately, when I try to install those rsct filesets, I get the following errors:

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.

MISSING REQUISITES: The following filesets are required by one or more
of the selected filesets listed above. They are not currently installed
and could not be found on the installation media.

bos.rte 6.0.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
rsct.basic.rte 2.4.5.0 # Base Level Fileset
xlC.aix61.rte 9.0.0.0 # Base Level Fileset

How do I get bos.rte 6 and rsct.basic.rte 2.4.5 on please?
 
If it is asking for bos.rte 6 you should call IBM, the rsct.basic.rte 2.4.5 is on the aix 5.3 base cd's.

hi mdraja

have you found a workaround? i run into the same problem with hacmp 5.4 and opened a call at ibm support. they told me to download the tl07 sp01 again and install over the existing installation. i found it a weird proposal, but i did it.
conclusion, it's still not working.
i installed a lot of hacmp clusters without problems (everything below tl07), so unexperience is not the issue.
any news are appreciated.

regards
