Hi,
it's about few days that I'm facing this error while running mksysb. The same script was perfectly working till last week and it's working on other aix systems.
Following is the error message:

I checked and the dspmsg doesn't exist. On all other aix systems it exists. Any idea on what happened?
Thanks.

It got removed by someone with root permissions. Restore it/copy it from other system.

Permissions r-xr-xr-x bin:bin

"Whenever I dwell for any length of time on my own shortcomings, they gradually begin to seem mild, harmless, rather engaging little things, not at all like the staring defects in other people's characters."
 
Thanks Mike.
I was just wondering why the file has been removed and who done it.
