"oslevel" & "oslevel -r"

Hi,

I have recently installed aix 4.3.3.0 (base level) on RS/6K machine and later did the update to aix 4.3.3.0 with ML11. However when I execute the command "oslevel" the machine shows "4.3.2.0", in contrast "oslevel -r" respond with "4330-11".

To clarify, verified the boot media and it's clearly AIX 4.3.3.

Despite of updating almost all the base level filesets to 4.3.3.0 (ML11), I couldn't get the desired output (4.3.3.0)on "oslevel" command which is required by the compilers to work on.

Greatly appreciate any help.

Thank you.

Re: "oslevel" & "oslevel -r"

try running the oslevel command with the -l flag. This will list filesets at levels earlier than maintenance level specified by the <level> parameter

oslevel -r -l 4330-11

Usage: oslevel [ -l <level> | -g <level> | -q ] [ -r ]
-l : List filesets at levels earlier than maintenance level
specified by the <level> parameter
-g : List filesets at levels later than maintenance level
specified by the <level> parameter
-q : List names of known maintenance levels
-r : Appies all flags to Recommended Maintenance Levels
-f : Forces cache rebuilt

Re: "oslevel" & "oslevel -r"

Hi,

I did tried "oslevel -rl 4330-11" but it returned back to prompt without any fileset info. It looks there is no broken filesets from the previous/present ML level.

Anything to do with "bos.rte"??

Thanks.

Re: "oslevel" & "oslevel -r"

If your are truly at 4330-11 when you run "lslpp -l bos.rte" you should see the following.
lslpp -l bos.rte
Fileset Level State Description
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Path: /usr/lib/objrepos
bos.rte 4.3.3.76 COMMITTED Base Operating System Runtime
Path: /etc/objrepos
bos.rte 4.3.2.0 COMMITTED Base Operating System Runtime

Re: "oslevel" & "oslevel -r"

Hi,

Thanks. The problem resolved after updating the IMNSearch fs's. Not sure whether really it causes the actual issue.

However the "lslpp -l bos.rte" and "oslevel -rl 4330-11" outputs does not show any clue to the actual issue. Pls find the posts below.

a). "lslpp -l bos.rte" returns with following output.

# lslpp -l bos.rte
Fileset Level State Description
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Path: /usr/lib/objrepos
bos.rte 4.3.3.77 COMMITTED Base Operating System Runtime
Path: /etc/objrepos
bos.rte 4.3.3.75 COMMITTED Base Operating System Runtime

b). "olsevel -rl 4330-11" output does not show any broken filesets during the upgrade. I assume it means the upgragde were alright.

Thanks.

Re: "oslevel" & "oslevel -r"

please check the man pages of oslevel as the structural functionality has changed a lot in AIX 5L

Please clarify your last post.
The system is running 4.3.3 what has AIX5L got to do with this thread?
