Hi there,

a NIM quickie:

I have an lpp_source with all AIX 5.3 base level filesets in it. It has
the "simages" attribute, but there are also additional base level filesets
in there, such as X11. I have used "nim -o update" to add all filesets
of the ML2 package to the lpp_source.

I used that lpp_source (and a SPOT created with the same lpp_source) to
install an LPAR. I specified a self-defined bundle to install additional
software (X11) during BOS installation. In that bundle were several X11
filesets, but *not* X11.motif.mwm. One or more filesets in the bundle have
X11.motif.mwm as a requisite, so the installation process included
X11.motif.mwm, even though it wasn't explicitly mentioned in the bundle.
However: it took the base level X11.motif.mwm and not the 5.3.0.20 version
that's also in the lpp_source!?

Is this expected behaviour? Is the way I described above the correct way
to directly install BOS at the latest ML?

Manually installing X11.motif.mwm from the same lpp_source worked fine,
and the LPAR now reports 5300-02 with oslevel -r (it was the only
backlevel fileset).

Thanks,
