    Did you specify the correct location of the BFF file ? Go to that
    directory and run 'inutoc .' before running smit.

    I have downloaded an AIX patch for bos.net.tcp.client 5.1.0.63. This fix
    loaded without a problem on our p650. I am trying to load up the same fix
    on an F50 disaster recovery box - but the system is giving me the message:

    #---------------------------------------------------------------------
    # No filesets on the media could be used to update the currently
    # installed software.
    #
    # Either the software is already at the same level as on the media, or
    # the media contains only filesets which are not currently installed.
    #---------------------------------------------------------------------
    I ran the same procedure ("smit update_all" and it worked fine on the p650.
    On the DR box I ran the lslpp -l bos.net.tcp.client and received the
    following response:

    root /> lslpp -l bos.net.tcp.client
      Fileset Level State Description

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Path: /usr/lib/objrepos
      bos.net.tcp.client 5.1.0.62 COMMITTED TCP/IP Client Support

    Path: /etc/objrepos
      bos.net.tcp.client 5.1.0.62 COMMITTED TCP/IP Client Support
    root />
    Why is the DR box not letting me load up a higher level of the software?

    Any information is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Brian
