Here's my $.02 worth.
If all your system is doing is reading disks and writing tapes, I would expect to see more IO waits. Of course, since you have striped SSA and LTO tape you are pulling data in and pushing it out pretty fast and maybe spending more time managing memory trying to keep...
You could put in your .dtprofile or your .profile -
aixterm -e cat /etc/motd; read
That should open up a window and cat out the motd. The read should wait for an enter key. You can add appropriate parameters to aixterm to change the bg and fg colors, fonts, title, etc.
If you put it in...
There is no problem with mixing the raid arrays in the same volume group. To the OS it would look just like having 3 18GB disks and 1 27GB disk (or whatever size they are) and you can mix different size disks in the same volume group with no problem (as long as the PP size is the same). If you...
Here's a quick shell script. Not the most effecient way, but it's a quick code.
Basically, it saves the records in a temporary file until the 99999 code is reached. If there was a company match before then it copies the record to the output file. Make sure that the printf statement puts the...
FWIW, AIX does not swap programs out, it pages them in/out. It's a small difference, but if you have a really large program it is quite possible that only the part of it being used will be in memory. The rest will remain on disk until called for. When that process has used up it's timeslice...
In AIX /usr is designed to be a "read mostly" file system. Log files and other things that grow are kept in /var. /usr should only contain executable code. So, in most systems it is perfectly all right for /usr to be 100% full. And you still have a little room left anyway, it just...
A couple things I would look at. First I would set my host address in /etc/hosts to 127.0.0.1, the loopback address. That way you'll always get to your machine no matter what address you get or the status of the network.
Second, if your machine is truly a server I would look at getting a...
Go to http://techsupport.services.ibm.com/rs6000/fixes . From there you can download the latest maintenence level of AIX code. You will be able to install this maint. level with one smit command. Instructions should come with the download.
Another option available at that same site under...
You don't specify which files to move, oldest, newest, alphabetically, etc. I use the ls command below, you can add the appropriate parameters to sort as desired.
Try this,

#!/bin/ksh
FROMDIR=/mcrook/files/stuff
TODIR=/mcrook/files
print...
On the second part of your question about the tape retension...
From http://www.rs6000.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixbman/baseadmn/tape_special.htm
(hopefully that will take you to the right place).
Retensioning means winding to the end of the tape and then rewinding to the beginning of...
If you don't have the root password, you will need either install disks or a mksysb tape to get in. You need to boot into Maintenance mode, mount the filesystems, edit /etc/security/password and remove the password entry. Then you should be able to get in.
I would separate out the phone numbers,
more Fri11.errors|awk '{print $18}' |sort |uniq> max
and then count them,
for PHONE in `cat max`
do
printf "%s %4d \n" "$PHONE" `grep $PHONE Fri11.errors | wc -l` >MaxCount
done
What this does is for every phone...
What you have is an RS/6000, not a PC. It uses the PowerPC (or Power or Power2, depending on the age of the system) processor and not an Intel x86 processor. It will not boot off of your standard PC floppy disks and will not run an operating system compiled to the x86 instruction set. Also...
