I am not sure if you really need the Inventory Scout to be installed at all. Have a look at the pinned thread "AIX bits and pieces" at the top of this forum and find out which filesets are downlevel at all. Then get exactly these filesets from IBMs Fixdist:Central website, the link is also mentioned in one of the pinned threads.

You could consider removing the Inventory Scout at all if you do not plan to use automatic updates.

I hope this helps.
