AIx to know there is installable filesets in the directory ?

Hi:
- downloaded the 5.3.3 filesets, unzipped and untared them and got a series of 
files :

-rw-r-----   1 root     system     50708480 Apr 12 09:34 tsmsrvaix5330.tar

1). I get errors when trying to install
2). as root I can't change ownership or access permissions on the files

Anyone have similar problems?
