Did you create the SPOT and lpp_source on the 4.3.3 machine?

Well,
We just did 8 of them on to brand new P650's from our 4.3.3 ML11
NIM master. We created a 5.1 SPOT and a 5.1 lpp_source. Then used a
generic mksysb via NIM to install the sytems. Didn't have any problems
at all. I guess nobody told our NIM server that it wasn't supposed to
work.
Thanks,

No...the master must be at the same level or higher.

Hi;
I am an admin in a primarily Solaris shop, with a few AIX boxes
performing
some fairly critical work. I am moderately skilled in AIX
administration,
but have not worked with NIM before. All of our existing AIX
boxes are
installed and configured differently due to different admins
doing each of
the installs. We would like to standardize our base install and
NIM seems
to be a good way to go about it.
I will likely be sending a number of NIM related questions to
the list
over the next couple of days, but my first question is;
Can I have a 4.3.x NIM master provide installation services for
5.1 clients?
Thanks,
Chris
