nohup get terminated
The "init is respawning too rapidly" indicates that the inittab looks for the process - finds that it is not running - and tries to respawn it. It is happening so fast that inittab thinks there is a problem - and reports it as the above error. Something is still wrong. It looks to me like the... -
JFS to JFS2 Conversion
If your system is mirrored - I would recommend breaking the mirror - creating the jfs2 - then copying the data to the new jfs2 file system - blowing away the old jfs and then remirroring. Backing up to tape can be a source of failure for a number of reasons. I always want to work from the... -
MAX PVs only 10
However - changing this factor - the t factor will result in a larger pp size. That may effect your distribution of data on the disks. For instance - if you are using the intra-policy of maximum - and you have files smaller than 64 mbs - they will be on only 1 disk. I suspect that the person... -
How do I change the outbound email port from 25 to another port?
Khalid, Thanks for your input. I will give that a shot. -
filemon shows user most active
ps auxw|sort -k5rn|pg will show heaviest memory user - ps auxw|pg will show user with highest cpu usage. -
unmount a file system
You may then want to remove the mount point so as to reduce confusion! rm -r /usr/perfmgr -
Almost 100% kernel CPU use with 3 dd commands running
I am not sure this is a problem. AIX will apportion the cpu based on the workload. If you only have a couple of jobs - those jobs will get the cpu time. -
Createing a symbolic link/2 seperate files sytems
ls -fs /frstfilenameabsolutepath /secondfilenameabsolutepath -
File won't Delete and appears with LS but not DIR
Use rm -i {} and it will prompt you if you want to remove it! -
rm'ed large file and do not see the space freed
fuser /filesystem - will also tell you if users are still accessing the file system and possibly the file. -
Identifying performance problems
I use ps auxw|pg to look at the processes using the most cpu - and ps auxw|sort -k5rn|pg to find the processes using the most memory - then investigate those processes. note the flags do not have the (-) sign on the flags. -
Few questions about this incident
Was there anything in the errpt report that would indicate a problem in regard to this issue? I would have checked! -
intallation problem
The problem may be that you do not have a tty defined on the port that you are plugged into. Make sure you plug it into first serial port. -
How do I change the outbound email port from 25 to another port?
I need to route my outbound email through a port other than 25. How do I make this happen? -
Defragfs - Risks and benefits ?
I personally would not trust it. If I had enough space - I would create a backup copy of the file system - blow away the old - recreate it - and then restore from the backup. That will make everything contiguouse again.
