Thanks Mike, I was looking at it, as I did not found any information on specific TL, I suppose my version is supported on Aix 5.3 whatever TL I am using ....
Thanks again for helping

As 5.0 is so old (see https://sort.symantec.com/eosl/show_matrix), it won't have been tested with higher TLs, so if want to use a version that has been tested with TL11 and 12, you will need to use 5.1SP1RP4
