Hi,
I hoping that some one could help me. I need to verify the patch level
on AIX 5.2. I ran the command "oslevel -q".
It replied "5.2.0.0". From what I have read, this indicates I have the
initial OS with no maintenance level installed.
Is this true? Also, Can I verify the OS levels date?.

Lastly, What do I apply, a RTF or APAR?

Thank you

What you need to do is run

oslevel -rq.

This will show what maintenance level the system know about.

Then run oslevel -r and you can find out what level you are running.

you can also run oslevel -rl 5200-02 and it will show you which fileset need
to be upgraded.

Then you can download the maintenance level filesets from the following IBM
site

Hope this helps!
