AIX requires the operating system level at 7100-05-01-1731 before you can upgrade to Oracle 19c database.

The following operating system file sets are required:

You need to install a Fortran Runtime Environment (RTE) which is license-free and available from the IBM support web page.
Note: You do not need to install the Fortran Runtime library on the client hosts.
  1. As root user, run the following command to verify whether IBM Fortran Runtime libraries exist in your system:
    # lslpp -L all | grep -i "Fortran Runtime"
  2. To install IBM Fortran Runtime, download and follow the installation instructions from XL Fortran Runtime for AIX Fix Pack 10 (February 2018 PTF) for 15.1.
    Important:
    • Installation of Fortran RTE might roll back the oslevel and might require to upgrade back to 7100-05-01-1731.

      Verify oslevel -s is at 7100-05-01-1731.
