NIM Master setup AIX5.3: need help

[oliverbeat]

Hi guys,

I have a system with the last version of AIX 5.3ML2 on which I installed nim master (nim_master_setup).
After the installation (NIM master setup is complete - enjoy! I like this message) , I check the level of my systems it looks bad some filesets are missing for ML1 and ML2 (and my system was good before the install !!)...
# lsnim
master machines master
boot resources boot
nim_script resources nim_script
master_net networks ent
5300-00master_sysb resources mksysb
master_net_conf resources resolv_conf
bid_ow resources bosinst_data
530lpp_res resources lpp_source
530spot_res resources spot
basic_res_grp groups res_group

# oslevel -r
5300-00

# instfix -i | grep _ML
All filesets for 5.3.0.0_AIX_ML were found.
Not all filesets for 5300-01_AIX_ML were found.
Not all filesets for 5300-02_AIX_ML were found.


and I would like to know if I did something wrong and how to fix it - should I reinstall ML1 and ML2 or reinstall AIX5.3ML0 and setup nim and afer upgrade the NIM master ?
I really dont know what to do ...

Thanks in advance for your help

with the command oslevel -rl 5300-02 you will see which filesets aren't up to date for having a 5.3 ML2
I expect that the nim.master fileset will be some levels to low.Just install the latest version for the filesets that were found with the oslevel -rl, and all will be well again

Regards,

if this box dedicated for NIM, i suggest you to apply ML02 directly and fix all the missing things.

if this box containing databases or applications, then only findout what is not up-to-date w.r.t NIM using #oslevel -rl 5200-02. Just update nim related stuff alone.

Make sure that you take backup before and after doing the change.

Hope it helps.

I would use "oslevel -rl 5300-02" :

then do/redo the ml upgrade to 5.3ml2

I would also do lppchk -vm3

Hi,

THANK YOU so much for your help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lpcchk -vm3 was correct but oslevel -rl :
Fileset Actual Level Recommended ML
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
bos.sysmgt.nim.master 5.3.0.0 5.3.0.20

So I download the fileset from IBM website and install it and now all is good ...
root@wndev40d:/root/ # oslevel -r
5300-02
root@wndev40d:/root/ # instfix -i | grep _ML
All filesets for 5.3.0.0_AIX_ML were found.
All filesets for 5300-01_AIX_ML were found.
All filesets for 5300-02_AIX_ML were found.

Thank you again.
