Find command and -xdev
Hi Ron, Thnaks for the feed back. Now I am really confussed as to what the heck is not working correctly. I fully get what you mean about find seeing the mount point and my backup command with the i doing a backbyname and thus just backing you the representation of the dir and not going into... -
Find command and -xdev
Greetings, I use the find command to feed the backup command to accomplish a system backup. The example would be: find /usr \ /var \ /home \ / -xdev|backup -ivqf /dev/rmt0 The -xdev is supposed to find everything in / that is within the hd4 filesystem. It is not supposed to... -
Verify good bootimage on rootvg
rootvg should only be on internal disk and not on SAN disks." HUH? I have for the last two years bounced back and forth between SAN and internal disks for maintance on powerpath and SSD. Heck I have had a system with a SAN and internal mirrored for months and months. AIX does not care. Disk is... -
paging space sizes
Your assumption about the 1.25 rule is correct. If you find you are actually paging on a regular basis you will need to address memory management. All the rules you may have used on a older RS/6000 do not apply on a P5 processor. A good resource is... -
ssa performance question
That will depend on the disk size but as a general rule shorter than longer. Minutes, not hours. -
Mksysb restore problem
I think you are getting stopped at the install level. You should be booting form a CD that is +/- one ML level form the mksysb. You can boot from tape if all you have nothing but time but Cd is way way faster. Now, once you are booted and have pressed 1 and enter twice, one to id the console and... -
IBM RS6000 43P 240
This link can help some (http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/IBM7248-HOWTO/) but the main thing you seem to be missing is that "for example i386 x86 PPC AMD SPARC...." represents differant types of CPU's. The 7043-43p-240 is a PowerPC CPU. This should help too...go to www.redbooks.ibm.com and look for... -

Lost communication
Hi All, On a p610 that runs BMC's Control-SA Enterprise Security Station using Oracle 8.1.7 yesterday I found I was unable to telnet to the system, or rather telnet got there but the login process failed to start and I would get this: Trying... Connected to hostname.domain.com Escape character... -

Default Password Security
That is how I have always done it, but then I am a bit of a Cowboy and do not always use the tools to do what vi allows me to do. I have never user the proper tool to edit inittab and have never had a problem. The actual command to change the default user stanza is: /usr/bin/chuser -f... -
Lost SSA drives after switching to 64-bit
Hi All, I just got off of the phone with IBM and have some insite. The only 64 bit compatable SSA card is the "IBM SSA 160 SerialRAID Adapter" aka feature code 6225/6230, FRU 09L2090. Hope this saves some of you some hassel Larry -

5.2 ML3
Hey Jarrett, Thanks for the response. This is not actuall realted to APAR IY56389, the too large of a bosboot image. Well kinda but not really. I have always booted from a CD to recover a mksysb. Booting from tape is just too bloody slow. IBM tells me that you cannot boot from ML02 based CD... -

5.2 ML3
Hi All, Has anyone else begun testing with ML3? My sandbox, an F50 is at AIX 5.2ML2. I installed ML3, created a mksysb and the attempted to restore from that image, twice, with some very bad results! My only recourse has been to restore 5.2ML2 from mksysb. The really strange part is this, the... -
