Hello,
we have an 7015-R40, we want to update AIX.
oslevel shows 4.3.2.0
At ibm.com we found following
AIX 4300-11 maintenance package
Recommended maintenance for AIX 4.3.3
It's possible to update the system with this file or does we need another source?
Thank you!

Hi All,
I need to do maintenance on the SAN. Do I need to shutdown AIX as well? Or I can just unmount the SAN-FS and let the SAN reboot or do maintenance mode. And then when SAN is up, just mount it back.
Is that simple it is or not?
Thanks in advance,
