   I agree, this is confusing. Let me see if I can list the requirements here:

        AIX 5.2, 32-bit  - devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api  5.2.0.30 or higher
        AIX 5.2 64-bit   -  devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api > 5.2.0.30 (ML4
or higher)

        AIX 5.3 32-bit  -  devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api 5.3.0.0 (base level)
        AIX 5.3 64-bit  -  devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api 5.3.0.10

   Also, in answer to your question regarding AIX 5.2 level for TSM
5.3,  you must be at release level 52f, which is the same as maintenance
level 3.

Does anyone know the correct fileset required to use San Discovery for
TSM V5.3?
(devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api required)  for AIX 5.2.
I read in the TSM supported HBAs for San Device maping
technote that it's 5.2.0.50.

But I read in the ITSM,server & Storage Agent v5.3.0 readme
where it said later than 5.2.0.30 for 64-bit. We are at 5.2.0.40.

I also understand that 5.2.0.30 for 64-bit. Has the error.
Does anyone know where else I can look on the IBM site
to check for any errors on filesets?

Also, Just to be sure what maintenance level does TSM 5.3
require for Aix 5.2. I believe it's ML2 we are at ML 4 so
I assume we are ok and no apar is needed.

Thanks for any help in advance

Config
