We recently had a server go down and after working with Veritas and IBM they determined that the crash was caused by console process/output getting locked by someone typing Ctrl+S at the console. Since veritas writes output to the console and couldn't, it eventually resulted in the "had"...

How does an IBM server react to a planned power outage. For instance, we shut the server down (shutdown -h now), then cut power to the room for testing (fire suppression, etc.), then return power to the room. During this, we never physically unplug the servers. Does the server starting...

Thanks Rod for the response. As I understand it, the soft limit (without the -H option) is what will be enforced first since it is lower. Given this, we have 26 servers the same. Only difference is that two of them have the ulimit -m set to unlimited for the oracle account. One of the two...

We have a pc hooked to a scale that uses a vb script to continuously send the "send weight" string to the scale and insert that weight into a table on a unix server. We would like to replace these pc's with thin clients and move this script to the unix server with perl. The scales...

I have a short program that I want to email a simple text file as an attachment. I have gotten the email to work but not the attachment portion. Here is my code so far. Can someone help me with the attachment part. Thanks, Greg $smtpserver= "server.com"; $mail{From} = 'Security...

Does anyone know of a way to get the serial number of an RS6000 from the command line in AIX 4.3.3? Thanks in advance.
