Full Discussion: Reinstalling AIX 4.3 on IBM RS6000
Operating Systems AIX Reinstalling AIX 4.3 on IBM RS6000 Post 302325994 by dukessd on Tuesday 16th of June 2009 08:23:06 PM

Have you got the AIX OS install CDs?

4.3 went out of support ages ago, even 5.1 and 5.2 are out of support now.

What model is it? There should be a little sticker on the front with something like the following on it, or run the command 'prtconf | head' for more info:

The sticker will have tiny writing and show something like:

70xx-yyy
zz-abc12

Or:

Type 70xx
zz-abc12

where 70xx is the machine type
yyy is the model
zz-abc123 is the serial number.

The machine type and model will help us to let you know what your options are.
