I'd put it all back with your mksysb and investigate and do more planning before you take any more action.

Subject: Upgrading Aix version and patches. Problems from a newbie

Hi to all:
      Here I'm with another problem :(. I've an H70 with Aix 4.3.2. This
machine was a replication of another machine. With the hardware come the
4.3.3 Aix Cds. Now I need to upgrade this Aix 4.3.2 to 4.3.3 and las
patches ( I think that is 11 ). I made something wrong. First I downloaded
from IBM the Aix Maintenance Packages from -No level- to -AIX 4330-11. I
obtained a 4330011tar.gz file. The next step was mounting the Aix 4.3.3.0
Aix CD and with smit update all installed software. After reboot, oslevel
said 4.3.2.0 :/.
      I tried to install the 4330011 decompressed file and seems taht all
is updated, but have some packages not installed by dependecies. At this
point, How I can upgrade this AIX to 4.3.3.0 and be sure that all necessary
is upgraded?

TIA

Of course, as always, is urgent :( If anybody can help me... thanks again
