Hello,


I have been trying to install IBM devices.pci.00100f00.rte on my AIX
box, with OS level
4330-04_AIX_ML. The process failed due to a missing of the following
requisites:

#installp -u -g devices.pci.00102100.rte


FILESET STATISTICS
------------------
1 Selected to be deinstalled, of which:
1 Passed pre-deinstall verification
----
1 Total to be deinstalled

0503-409 installp: bosboot verification starting...
0503-497 installp: An error occurred during bosboot verification
processing.


I have enough available space in /tmp

df -k
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Filesystem 1024-blocks Free %Used Iused %Iused Mounted on
/dev/hd3 65536 50424 24% 220 2% /tmp


#lppchk -v
lppchk: The following filesets need to be installed or corrected to
bring
the system to a consistent state:

devices.common.IBM.scsi.rte 4.3.3.75 (usr: APPLIED, root: BROKEN)
devices.pci.00100100.com 4.3.3.75 (not installed; requisite
fileset)
devices.pci.00100f00.rte 4.3.3.75 (BROKEN)

#lppchk -f
lppchk: 0504-208 Size of /usr/lib/methods/ucfgncr_scsi is 5716,
expected
value was 5680.
lppchk: 0504-208 Size of /usr/lib/methods/chgncr_scsi is 18486,
expected
value was 17446.
lppchk: 0504-208 Size of /usr/lib/methods/cfgncr_scsi is 23452,
expected
value was 21936.


I am getting an error while trying to install or delete the
filesets,or when running mksysb command,
report the same message: :

0503-497 installp: An error occurred during bosboot verification
processing.



can anyone explain this to me?
thanks in advance-

Tiburcio Sánchez

Boy is this confusing. Are you trying to install software, or
uninstall software. The installp command you showed was trying to
uninstall (-u flag) devices.pci.00102100.rte and all of it's
dependents (-g flag).

The lppchk command you ran indicates you have some filesets in a bad
state. Try "smitty maintain_software", and select the "Clean Up After
Failed..." selection. Then retry your install.
