well mksysb your AIX 4.3 Installation

boot RS6000 from CD/NIM with AIX 5.3 Installation Image - choose update existing installation


takes a while, then reboot - install the latest fixes/TL
take another mksysb of your new AIX 5.3 installation
and thats the point - copy it to your nim server, configure it as a nim resource and install the new lpar with this nim package

all operating system data from rootvg is installed on the new hardware
you have to make sure you have all driver lpps for the power 5 hardware installed, which is default
I did this many times, was no problem in our case

is this an option for you, or don't you have a nim server?

got other vgs then rootvg? external san storage?

NAME

       suninstall - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       suninstall

DESCRIPTION

       install-solaris(1M) is now the preferred command for starting and restarting the Solaris Installation program. It should be used instead of
       suninstall. suninstall is symbolically linked to install-solaris.

       suninstall is a forms-based and graphical subsystem for installing the operating system.

       suninstall exists only on the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should only be invoked from there. Refer to the Solaris 10 Instal-
       lation Guide: Basic Installations for more details.

       suninstall allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. suninstall loads the software available on the installa-
       tion media. Refer to the Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Basic Installations for disk space requirements.

USAGE

       Refer to the Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Basic Installations for more information on the various menus and selections.
