Hallo Paolo,

these filesets have been some sort of running gag since at least AIX
4.3.3... AFAIK they do not exist on any AIX media. However they are not
needed by AIX - at least I never encountered any problems with my servers
after installing AIX with these filesets missing.
Given the case that you really need them for your Ultrium tape your best
chance is to call IBM and have it send to you. In this case plse share
information with us whether it solved your problem.

HTH,
Andreass
