Ok,
If you are using Technology Level (TL) to create lpp_source, you get this warning message.
What that means is, you cannot perform Base Operating System Installation, using that lpp_source. But, you can use that lpp_source to upgrade the clients.
If you try to find those file sets in that TL (AIX6.1TL9SP01) you won't find any of those file sets in installation mode, and the error above is complaining the same.
If you observe, all those file sets will exist in the form of xxxx.rte.U or xxxx.U, showing they are only to be upgraded and NO fileset exist in xxxx.I installation format.
Remember: You CAN perform the TL upgrades using that lpp_source, but CANNOT do a BOS_INST.
Hope this helps.

invsync(8) System Manager's Manual invsync(8)
NAME
invsync - Synchronizes system inventory
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/invsync
DESCRIPTION
The invsync utility creates a Master Synchronization Inventory (MSI) file and a Customized File Inventory (CFI) file. These files can be
used to preserve the customized or modified state of your system in the event of a new installation. The MSI file contains a complete list
of files installed by the setld utility and the state of those files when they were installed. The CFI file contains the names of those
files installed by the setld utility that have been customized or modified since the installation. The files listed in the CFI file are
overwritten if you perform a new installation of the operating system.
You must have superuser privileges to run the invsync utility.
The invsync utility calls the usync utility to create the MSI file. After the MSI file is created, the invsync utility calls the udetect
utility to compare the state of the files shown in the MSI file with the current state of the files installed on the system. If a file
state differs, an entry is written to the CFI file.
Edit the CFI file to remove the entries for files that you do not want to back up. The CFI file and the MSI file are written in the setld
inventory file format. For more information, refer to the stl_inv(4) refernce page.
RESTRICTIONS
You must have superuser privileges to run the invsync utility.
FILES
Subset lock files Subset inventory files Customized File Inventory Master Synchronization Inventory
