[nv-l] Trying to upgrade to 7.1.4

["Westphal, Raymond W" <Raymond.W.Westphal@erac.com>]

Hello Everyone.

 

NV 7.1.3 on AIX 5.2 -

I'm trying to upgrade to 7.1.4 via the Framework installation method. The install gets to nearly the end and then fails with errors. You can actually start most of the daemons except nvlockd. nvlockd fails because the /etc/services does not have any NetView services anymore. I run all the checks before installation and I have even increased my NetView file system sizes to maximum possible size but I still get the following error:

 

Something went wrong:
Media Packet:  "/cdrom/FILE33.PKT"
tnvlab01:FAILED (soft error) .......

 

Here are the last few lines of the the /tmp/update.log:

       * Running customize script for fileset OVXMPAPI-MAN.
       *   Making links....
       * Running customize script for fileset IBMVA-RUN.

I'd appreciate any suggestions, ideas or best wishes.
