After generating a spot from a lppsource at TL06 , lsnim shows the same oslevel of the spot generated with a lppsource at 05-CSP (NIM Server is at level 5300-06-03-0732) :

spot5305:
class = resources
type = spot
plat_defined = chrp
arch = power
bos_license = yes
Rstate = ready for use
prev_state = customization is being performed
location = /export/spot/spot5305/usr
version = 5
release = 3
mod = 0
oslevel_r = 5300-05
alloc_count = 0
server = master
if_supported = chrp.mp ent
Rstate_result = success

spot5306:
class = resources
type = spot
plat_defined = chrp
arch = power
bos_license = yes
Rstate = ready for use
prev_state = verification is being performed
location = /export/spot/spot5306/usr
version = 5
release = 3
mod = 0
oslevel_r = 5300-05
alloc_count = 0
server = master
if_supported = chrp.mp ent
Rstate_result = success
 
yes I made the upgrade of the nim server (5300-06-03-0732)with this lppsource and generated the spot from this lppsource
 
I would suggest you do a test install on this image and see the oslevel on the target machine! maybe its only a bug in the lsnim output!

Check the missing filesets in your spot to be at TL6

nim -o fix_query -a fix_query_flags="-c" spot5306 | grep ":-:" | grep 5300-06_AIX


And then compare them with those in our lppsource
 
ok thanks

mbsnim01:/export/lppsource/work>nim -o fix_query -a fix_query_flags="-c" spot5306 | grep ":-:" | grep 5300-06_AIX
5300-06_AIX_ML:devices.pci.14107d01.rte:5.3.0.60:5.3.0.51:-:AIX 5300-06 Update

I do not understand at the moment why the fileset devices.pci.14107d01.rte.5.3.0.60 not in the lppsource is because I downloaded from the new fix central the last SP 5300-06-03-0732 with the TL 5300-06 together and afterwards I made a "Clean Up Software Images in Repository" on the created lppsource to delete unneeded lpp's ...
I try to recreate the different steps to see from where this "error" comes.
 
As you said fixcentral has changed for a new but not very good version.

Impossible now to download specific APARS out of the full ML.

Probably when you downloaded ML6 you didn't gave an lslpp -Lc to check prerequisites.
 
and impossible to download specific filesets ;-((
 
As far as i know, you cant, when you select an APAR fixcentral replies it's included in ML XX and propose to download this ML.

The only way i found, is to search into the temporary directory created for download where the filset is located.
 
download of the TL06 first single step
download TL06-SP3 single step
merge the two staging directory to the new lppsource
cleanup the new lppsource

and now ok
