Hi all,
I got some odd results within lppchk on some systems I administer.
AIX 5.3 System with lppchk -v gives this result:
devices.common.IBM.iscsi.rte 5.2.0.0 (not installed; requisite fileset)
devices.common.IBM.iscsi.rte 5.2.0.51 (usr: not installed, root: COMMITTED)
devices.common.IBM.iscsi.rte 5.3.0.30 (usr: not installed, root: APPLIED)
As mentioned above, there is AIX 5.3 installed. I do not want and take the system down as it is working now, but still wanna fix this wrong listing
For once, i tried to isntall AIX 53-04-CSP as the 5.3.0.30 package should be in there. Nothing happened. Then I thought I might give 53.05.06 a try and install the devices.common.IBM.iscis.rte v 5.3.0.50. This failed as the requisite is failing. Deinstalling devices.common.IBM.iscsi.rte 5.3.0.30 would mean to deinstall all dependencies also, and those are quite a lot
I cannot find devices.common.IBM.iscsi.rte 5.3.0.30 @ IBM website as the fixcentral stopped giving me the chance to download old filesets..
Anybody has some ideas how to clear this mess ? I do not know how to reject certain versions of an applied filepackage. Deleting it out of the ODM would prolly help, but might bring some other errors
Thanks for your replys,
tenshi
*edit:
OSLEVEL shoudl be 5300-05-06
EDIT:
got it myself. Had to really delete the fileset out of the ODM with following procedure:
tar -cvf /tmp/odm.xx.tar /etc/objrepos and /usr/lib/objrepos
1. odmget -q name=devices.common.IBM.iscsi.rte lpp
output will show lpp_id. remember that one
2. odmdelete -q name=devices.common.IBM.iscsi.rte -o lpp
3. odmdelete -q lpp_name=devices.common.IBM.iscis.rte -o product
4. odmdelete -q lpp_id="X" -o history
5. odmdelete -q lpp_id="X" -o inventory
Then reinstall the base fileset with Force-Flag and update it till the wanted TL is installed.
