X11 filesets required for the installation of Fix Pack 2 for V5.0 on AIX®
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)

Certain X11 filesets are required for the installation of Fix Pack 2 for WebSphere® Application Server V5.0 on AIX platforms. If these filesets are not present on the system or do not meet the prerequisite version, the installer does nothing, and ends with no errors or log files. APAR PQ82005 has been created to add this information to the WebSphere Application Server Information Center.
 
Cause
InstallShield Multi-Platform (ISMP) requires that certain X11 filesets are present on the system before the installer will run.
 
Resolving the problem
Verify that the following filesets are on the system :

* You can run the lslpp -L | grep (bos.perf or X11) command to list the filesets

The first two are for PMI :

bos.perf.perfstat (Performance Statistics)
bos.perf.libperfstat (Performance Statistics Library)
X11.base.common 05.01.0000.0000 1 N U en_US AIXwindows Runtime Common Directories

with prereqs :

The key one is :
