Yesterday we tried a trial install on one of our test Itanium server
running on HP-UX 11iV2.

while doing the install I got
the below error.

WARNING: The product "MQSERIES,r=6.0.0.0" is not compatible with this
system's architecture or operating system. If the OS has been ^
| updated since this product was installed, a newer version |
| should be installed if available. |
| * This product will still be included in the task because the |
| "allow_incompatible" option is set to "true". |
| * Reading source for file information. |
| WARNING: You do not appear to have a /var/mqm filesystem. It is |
| recommended that before installation you create and mount
| /var/mqm, /var/mqm/logs and /var/mqm/errors to isolate |
| MQ queue data and log files from the rest of the |
| system. You may continue installation if you are prepared |
| to accept having this data on your /var filesystem.
Otherwise, quit the installation program and create the ^
| filesystems before rerunning swinstall. |
| WARNING:The license agreement has not been accepted. |
| Run the 'mqlicense.sh' script, which is in the root |
| directory of the install media, or see the |
| Quick Beginnings book for more information. |
| WARNING: The "checkinstall" script for "MQSERIES.MQM-RUNTIME" had a |
| warning (exit code "2"). The script location was |
| "/var/tmp/BAAa11049/catalog/MQSERIES/MQM-RUNTIME/checkinstall".

We usually install the base version MQ V6.0.0.0 and then install the
Refresh pack MQ V6.0.0.2 and then on top of it the Fix Pack MQV6.0.2.2.

In one of the the link it says

WebSphere MQ 6.0.2.0 or later is required.

So what I understood is we have to download the MQ V6.0.2.0 version and
install it on that box rather than following the above path of base+ RP
+ FP.

Please let me know if I am correct.
