I would check the PTF's to see if they are actually current, don't
assume they are.
I believe the latest V3R2 PTF's for the upgrade assistant is SF40861.
There are pre-req & co-req PTF's that should be downloaded when you
order the PTF.  There are language dependent MRI Co-Req PTF's too that
you should order.   SF31609 for language code 2924 (English UPPER/Lower
Case).- see below for others:

   APAR SA54070 AFFECTS THESE LANGUAGES.  IF YOU HAVE ANY OF        
   THESE LANGUAGES INSTALLED, INSTALL THE CO-REQUISITE MRI PTF THAT 
   CORRESPONDS TO THE LANGUAGE(S) INSTALLED ON YOUR SYSTEM.
