RE: What Version of Service Pack for OS/400, etc ???

Chuck

Obviously your AS/400 is at an older CA PTF level then your CA
distribution CD. That's not too much of a problem, but to make it nice
and clean try ordering and installing the latest CUM PTF package for
whatever OS version you're running. After that reboot your CA PC again.
This time most probably it will suggest you download the latest CA
service pack from your managing system. Take this option and hopefully
it'll work.
