AIX - Installing the Base Operating System

AIX - Installing the Base Operating System

There are multiple ways to install the AIX® base operating system.

The Base Operating System (BOS) installation program first restores the run-time bos image, then installs the appropriate filesets, depending on your selections. The installation program automatically installs required message filesets, according to the language you choose

If you are reinstalling on an older system, the DVD media can only be used to boot or reinstall on 64-bit systems. To determine if your system is a 32-bit system or a 64-bit system, run the prtconf command with the -c flag.

The following installation methods are available on AIX:

New and Complete Overwrite

Preservation

Migration
