Data Setup NIM - need help please

Hi guys,

I have a system with the last version of AIX 5.3ML2 on which I installed nim master (nim_master_setup).
After the installation (NIM master setup is complete - enjoy! I like this message Smilie ) , I check the level of my systems it looks bad some filesets are missing for ML1 and ML2 (and my system was good before the install !!)...
# lsnim
master machines master
boot resources boot
nim_script resources nim_script
master_net networks ent
5300-00master_sysb resources mksysb
master_net_conf resources resolv_conf
bid_ow resources bosinst_data
530lpp_res resources lpp_source
530spot_res resources spot
basic_res_grp groups res_group

# oslevel -r
5300-00

# instfix -i | grep _ML
All filesets for 5.3.0.0_AIX_ML were found.
Not all filesets for 5300-01_AIX_ML were found.
Not all filesets for 5300-02_AIX_ML were found.


and I would like to know if I did something wrong and how to fix it - should I reinstall ML1 and ML2 or reinstall AIX5.3ML0 and setup nim and afer upgrade the NIM master ?
I really dont know what to do ...

Thanks in advance for your help

Hammer & Screwdriver problem fixed

Hi,
I recheck my system this morning (yesterday I was too tired)
lpcchk -vm3 was correct but oslevel -rl :
Fileset Actual Level Recommended ML
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
bos.sysmgt.nim.master 5.3.0.0 5.3.0.20

So I download the fileset from IBM website and install it and now all is good ...
root@wndev40d:/root/ # oslevel -r
5300-02
root@wndev40d:/root/ # instfix -i | grep _ML
All filesets for 5.3.0.0_AIX_ML were found.
All filesets for 5300-01_AIX_ML were found.
All filesets for 5300-02_AIX_ML were found.
Bye.
