George,
The /tmp/update.log reports snmpget fails in the install. 
One of the reasons given is nvsecd is not running. I try 
to run the snmpget with nvsecd stopped and it fails with 
permission denied. This is not the behavior I see on my 
other servers. 
Frankly - I'm out of ideas now.
Thanks,

 Check /usr/OV/security/cmds for unsecure versions of the 
snmp utility 
which run without the nvsecd daemon active.
Specifically, there is a snmpget_unsecure command.
Why do you think the problem is security related?
Regards,
Geo.

7.1.4 
I think the problem is NetView security related. Should I 
be able to run snmpget with security off and the nvsecd 
down? This will only work if nvsecd is running. nvauth 
-login works and reports security is off. 
Thanks

 I did a similar upgrade but my platform was AIX 5.1 - no 
problems.  Have you checked that you have the AIX 5.2 
prereq and that you are running the correct version of 
the snmpd as doc'ed in the Release Notes?
Cheers,

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.
