Hanging on led 911 when booting from sysback image

Question:

Env:
  AIX 4.1
  RISC 7013-59H (server)  and  J30 (client)
  Tape 7208-011 5gb 8mm
  Sysback 3.3.3.6

Desc:  
  Customer created a fullsystem backup of his 59H and tried to 
  boot his J30 from that system backup tape.  
  The leds are 253 299 911

Action:
  Led 911 means you are booting from a invaild boot image on
  a rs6ksmp machine (j30).
  The customer did not build the correct boot image for a 
  mp system.  The customer states he did not get that option
  when building the system backup tape on the 59H in smit.
  He states he only had a option for the rs6k up kernal.
  This is due to missing these file sets:
  bos.rte.mp and devices.rs6ksmp.base.rte 

  1.  I had the customer install on the 59H
      bos.rte.mp, devices.rs6ksmp.base.rte
      devices.xxx for the IO ports, and device support for the
      SCSI adapters.
   2.  reboot the 59H
  
  3.  rebuild the full system backup tape.

Next Action:
  Closing with customer approval
