AIX TL updates not including all packages needed

In trying to resolve my issue, I downloaded TL 11 and trying to update to it. Why the heck does not the TL fix have the required files in it? Thats another 1.+ GB download. I am also sure that when I go to install that package it will complain about rsct not being updated.



MISSING REQUISITES: The following filesets are required by one or more
of the selected filesets listed above. They are not currently installed
and could not be found on the installation media.

devices.vdevice.IBM.v-scsi-host.rte 5.3.8.0 # Base Level Fileset
# 2

This error implies that the fileset devices.vdevice.IBM.v-scsi-host.rte isn't installed at all. Probably the update is in the ML, but the base fileset hasn't been installed previously.

To confirm:
Code:
lslpp -Lc | grep devices.vdevice.IBM.v-scsi-host.rte

If this returns nothing then install that fileset from your base source and then do the ML update. That should fix the problem.

How much time for updates: HP-UX and AIX.?

Wasn't sure how to word the title... sorry. In HP-UX and AIX specifically you apply a set of patches, not like solaris and linux where you update what's needed individually. So, for example, when going from patch level 1.1 to 1.8 is the time to complete exponential (1.1 -> 1.2 -> 1.3.. so on)... (1 Reply)
