Migration using nimadm

UNIX AIX
1

Hi ,
I am planning to upgrade nim client server from AIX 5.3 to AIX 6.1 using nimadm. My nim master is a 6.1 TL5 with the bos.alt_disk_install.rte 6.1.5.0 installed.

I want to upgrade client at 6.1 TL4 level using the 6.1 TL4 lpp_source and spot.

Question : As per the ibm information it says

  • The level of the fileset, which includes the bos.alt_disk_install.rte file and the bos.alt_disk_install.boot_images file, on the NIM master rootvg, lpp_source, and SPOT must be at the same level.
  • alt_disk_install.boot_images file, on the NIM master rootvg, lpp_source, and SPOT must be at the same level.

Does this mean that I need to unistall bos.alt_disk_install.rte 6.1.5.0 from NIM Master and install bos.alt_disk_install.rte 6.1.4.0 on all 3 ( rootvg , 6.1 TL4 lpp_source and 6.1 tl4 spot) ?

Thanks
