Did you do an "inutoc ." in the directory you copied the bff packages?
What error message are you getting from smitty?

Not an answer to your question but just to give a correction to the
last posting - I think that when you install thru smitty it actually
creates a new .toc file and so inutoc is not needed. I always still
run inutoc myself though just in case!!

Hi,

Not sure what is ur exact pb, but u can try this (I assume u did it
already):

# smitty bffcreate

Then install it using preview 1st to check fileset dependencies

# smitty install_latest

Cheers
