    vpath disks

    Thanks for this - it looks a useful document. The problem is now sorted. It looks like there were Persistent Reserves on the disks following the adapter error. These survived a reboot, but IBM were able to log into the disk array and free up the disks.Once they'd done that, I needed rmdev -dl...

    vpath disks

    We have some vpath disks running under AIX 5.1 (!). We had some errors on an adapter, but a psuedo replace seemed to sort it. Following a reboot, I can see all the disks, but some are reporting IO errors whatever I try to do anything with them eg 'dd'. The odd thing is that the disks are showing...

    PC build - chassis fan issue

    Thanks for all the replies on this. Taking all the advice on board, I've connected the 4 pin molex to the PSU (that was always going to be the case). I've connected the 3 pin fan nearest to the CPU to the mobo. The other 3 pin is in the front of the case, near the hard drive, so I'm not...

    PC build - chassis fan issue

    Hi I'm a unix guy and, foolishly, said I'd help my son build a PC. He has a Zalman Z11+ chassis and a ASUS H81M+ mobo. The mobo has 1x4 pin chassis fan connection, but there are three fans, 2 with 3 pin connectors and one with a 4pin-molex. How do I manage the fan connections? Am I missing...

    CPU monitoring in an lpar environment

    Thanks for the postings - I've been wrestling with another problem hence my lack of a reply. I'm already using lpar2rrd and its results are similar to my Patrol KM - which is likely as they both use the same source. I use nmon a lot, but I need frame wide stats on CPU ie overall and Shared...

    CPU monitoring in an lpar environment

    Hi, I'm looking at the best way of checking CPU in terms of the effect on performance on our p570s with uncapped lpars. From what I can see, there are three limits that will have an impact Overall usage Shared Processor Pool Usage An lpar reaching its VP limit. I've used lpar2rrd for the first...

    vpath disk reformat

    Hi, We are using ESS vpath devices and running AIX 5.1 ML 7 There was a hardware issue with a LUN and partitions using it were marked stale. The ESS is now fixed, but we got 'media surface error on re-syncs. I moved everything off the disk and tried to create a new filesystem, but I still get...

    TSM 5.1 and TDPO encryption

    We are using TSM 5.1 on AIX 5.1 and are looking to encrypt backups. We should be able to manage the standard incremental by setting encryption in the dsm.opt for the client. However, we also need to backup using RMAN. Is it as simple as setting encryption in the dsm.opt file associated with the...

    Memory footprint

    Mike, Thanks for replying. I get the terrible feeling, I've missed something very obvious here, or I've miscounted the number of digits somewhere ! Here's the output from the various commands: #Used by pro ps -lfu pro|awk '{if ($10!="SZ"){t+=$10}}END{print t}' 6456356 KB #Used by pro (svmon)...

    Memory footprint

    I've been asked to supply the memory footprint of a user on an AIX 5.1 system.For a snapshot I thought I'd run ps -lfu pro|awk '{if ( $10 != "SZ") {t+=$10}} END {print t}' 7055636 The problem is when I run the command for the system as a whole I get a value that exceeds the total of system...

    Strange rootvg behaviour

    The problem I'm going to outline has been resolved, but I'd be grateful if comeone could shed some light on why the actions worked ! Sorry it's a bit long winded. We have an AIX 4.3.3 system.We lost a disk (one of two in rootvg), so I in preparation for the replacement I ran unmirrorvg. The...

    Moving Forms etc

    That looks like just the thing I need. A decade ago I was an Oracle forms designer and it was a lot easier as forms were held as an executable outside the database, but looking on the internet it doesn't seem that simple for Access. I think I'll build myself a release database to manage versions.

    Moving Forms etc

    I'm a bit green on Access, but is it possible to move forms/reports/modules etc between databases ? ie release a new version of a form to replace an existing one in a database.

    PS/2 Mouse Problem

    Sorry, I didn't make myself clear here. I've tried booting with only the PS/2 mouse connected, but it still won't respond. It sees the mouse as a device though. At this point I can plug back the the USB mouse and that one works ok. Trouble is I need the PS/2 mouse !

    PS/2 Mouse Problem

    I currently use a PC Line USB mouse on an XP system. I need to go back to a PS/2 mouse in preparation to use a KVM, but when I plug such a mouse in it doesn't respond. The device is visible, but doesn't respond. I've uninstalled the USB mouse, but still the PS/2 mouse won't work. Strangely...

    Forwards compatibility

    I did find an Access 2002 installation and it seemed to run ok. I'm at the A01 version at the moment but I had thought about bringing in OLE Automation down the line, so thanks for the tip.

    Forwards compatibility

    I'm a unix administrator looking for help with Microsoft Access with which I have little experience. So if someone is inclined to answer a question from the dark side, can anyone tell me if a database developed under Access 2003 will run on Access 2002? By the normal laws of nature I shouldn't...
