Hi,zhuowei:
I read your article link and Chris's one link

I could successfully launch a qemu VM per your instructions(AIX 7.2 diagnostics disk). When I try Chris's waylink, I failed at step 5, the only difference between us is the AIX version. Mine is 7.1 while Chris's env is 7.2

Could you give me some suggestion about this?

this is my source AIX

I found this link
Is it reasonable that only the below AIX could be emulated by qemu or other cloud platform?

  1. AIX 7.1 L5 and above
  2. AIX 7.2 L2 and above

If it does, then I think I don't need to try the AIX lower version
