Thanks for getting back to me.  I figured it out.  OS_install is VERY particular about what things are named, and how it ends up being laidout.  It must install to location=/csminstall

Thanks

When I get my nim server started up (I am 5 hour plane trip from my nim server, now offline) I'll take a look. However, you might just try using:
smitty nim
... Administer ...
Manage Resources->Define Resources

In the dialog that is there linux_source - whatever it's name may be - is one of the resource types that can be defined. You will recognize it! and then press ESC-6 (Escape 6 - two key presses) to see the command it makes.

or, from the command line just type:

nim -o define

and read carefully the error/syntax message presented.

good luck - do update with the correct command!

I have a Power6 with multiple AIX LPARs all are oslevel 6100-03-01-0921

I have a NIM Master as one of the LPARs, and room enough to install RedHat EL5.4.
"I am trying to create the linux_source with the following command -
/usr/sbin/OS_install -o define_resource -a location=/nimages/RHELRES -a source=/mnt -a type=linux_source -a version=RedHat RHEL54"

but receive an error message about linux_source not being a valid type.
"ERROR: linux_source is not a valid type attribute"

I hope someone can help me.
Thanks in Advance
