Did anyone successfully install ISC7.1/AC6.1 on AIX?

Same issue...

...did you resolve this. I'm thinking of using an older version and then patch it, but IBM's software library is limited at the moment (to say the least!)...

The log says that DE thinks the box is a Vista with AMD-processors, while in reality it is Windows 2008 R2 x64 with Intel processors...

Thanks!

The issue solved, it turned out to be DE issue (Deploment Engine), in some case, the AIX or other UNIX / Linux already has DE installed with lower version, need be uninstlled first before you start to install TSM 6.1 or AC.
