Not able to install softwares giving bosboot verification failure

when i try to install software on aix box it gives me error of bosboot verification failed.

i check and found that /dev/ipldevice was not present. this file is a symlink of /dev/hdisk0 ( boot disk ).

so recreate the file /dev/ipldevice and make a hardlink of /dev/hdisk0

ln /dev/hdisk0 /dev/ipldevice

and then do bosboot -ad /dev/hdisk0

and then i tried to install software it works.
