Hi all,

A few days ago I tried to install SP-04 for AIX 5.2 TL-09 on a test
machine. This box was at level 5200-09-00 (oslevel -s) before this.
Almost all filesets update ok, but just only one failed. It was
bos.net.snapp. It was at level 5.2.0.0 and was supposed to be at level
5.2.0.1 after SP04 install.

During install, occured these errors:

sysck: 3001-038 The name snapp is not a known group for entry /usr/
sbin/snappd
sysck: 3001-003 A value must be specified for group for entry /usr/
sbin/snappd
sysck: 3001-038 The name snapp is not a known group for entry /usr/
sbin/snappd
sysck: 3001-003 A value must be specified for group for entry /usr/
sbin/snappd
sysck: 3001-017 Errors were detected validating the files for
bos.net.snapp

It seems that if I create snapp group I can install all filesets for
SP04. But, none of our systems have snapp group so I can only think
that it is a installation bug. /usr/sbin/snappd entry doesn't even
exist in /etc/security/sysck.cfg at bos.net.snapp fileset at level
5.2.0.0.

If I execute "oslevel -s -l 5200-09-04", it only outputs that
bos.net.snapp is at wrong level for SP04.

Does anyone know another solution than creating a new group ?

Regards

hi,

You might check who owns the filesets that you are trying to use for
the update. The error you describe might result from some unsuitable
ownership (group) settings.

bos.net.snapp files are owned by root at level 5.2.0.0. Why IBM
changed this ?

APAR IY88820, that explains why fileset was updated doesn't say
anything about creating a new group. In a controlled environment,
creating a new group isn't easy...

Thanks for your attention.
