Response

The platform is unable to support the requested architecture options requested by the operating system via ibm,client-architecture-support interface.

 

Solution

6100-01 is not supported on a 9117-mmb. So if installing the AIX operating

 

system on a 9117-mmb frame, please make sure you go with one of these options.

AIX 6.1 with the 6100-04 Technology Level and Service Pack 3, or later.
AIX 6.1 with the 6100-03 Technology Level and Service Pack 5, or later.

AIX 6.1 with the 6100-02 Technology Level and Service Pack 8, or later.

 If you have used lpp and spot of 6100-01 level, please update the lpp and spot to the above mentioned TL levels and perform the migration.

                      By doing so, you can bypass this LED hung of server during the reboot of the server after the OS migration
