Operating Systems AIX One package from SP wont install correctly Post 302957069 by agent.kgb on Tuesday 6th of October 2015 03:38:12 PM

1. If you are an official IBM AIX user, you have access to Entitled Software Support, where you can download the full CD.
2. You receive your AIX CD/DVD with every new server you've bought.
3. It is a good practice to make a copy of the CD and save it somewhere. If you don't do it, it is a good time to start.
4. It is also a good practice to read what others write.

The difference between
Code:
installp -acFXYd filename.bff bos.net.tcp.client

and

Code:
installp -acFXYd /ibm/patch/src bos.net.tcp.client

is obvious IMO. In your particular case it should be:
Code:
installp -acFXYd  bos.net.tcp.client.6.1.8.19.U bos.net.tcp.client

Some more notices:
1. Make su - or sudo su -.
2. I saw a lot of troubles in my life trying installing packages from an NFS share. I can't explain it. In different environments with different NFS settings and shares. Sometimes everything is ok, sometimes some mystic with package installation. Try to copy the fileset to the local directory and install it.
3. Find an AIX CD from TL8. Then you will have access to .I package (installable), not .U package (updates) and you can try to apply the fix again.

BOS_SETRESTRICTED(8)					       AFS Command Reference					      BOS_SETRESTRICTED(8)

NAME
bos_setrestricted - place a server in restricted mode SYNOPSIS
bos setrestricted -server <machine name> -mode 1 [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-help] DESCRIPTION
The bos restricted command places the server in restricted mode. This mode increases the security of the bos server by removing access to a number of bos commands that are only used whilst configuring a system. When a server is in restricted mode, access to bos_exec, bos uninstall, bos install, bos create, bos install, bos delete, bos prune is denied, and the use of bos getlog is limited. CAUTIONS
Once a server has been placed in restricted mode, it may not be opened up again using a remote command. That is, bos setrestricted has no method of setting an unrestricted mode. Once a server is restricted, it can only be opened up again by sending it a SIGFPE, which must be done as root on the local machine. OPTIONS
-server <machine name> Indicates the server machine to restrict. -cell <cell name> Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8). -noauth Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8). -localauth Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The bos command interpreter presents the ticket to the BOS Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more details, see bos(8). -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine named by the -server argument, or must be logged in as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth flag is included. As noted above, this command cannot be run against servers which are already in restricted mode. SEE ALSO
