I am linking 4 C object files together to produce the executable file. If the binary file does not exist, it creates the executable with my user owner:group. I can then re-run the linker and it will over-write the executable and the owner:group will remain the same. All is good. If another...

I have a Pwr6 520 express server, with 6 drives: 2 146GB and 4 450GB drives. I have installed a single VIOS on the 2 146GB drives and created 4 storage pools(VG's) in VIOS and assigned 1ea 450GB drive to ea storage pool. I have done this in order to assign 4 virtual disks to my VIOC's...

With my customers starting to ask if my applications are certified to run on AIX7, I ve started to think about a scenario. I have a Power6 520 express server, with a VIO partition and an AIX6.1 partition. I want to bring up another partition with AIX7 I know IBM offers the binary...

I am building a P520 Express server. I want to split the backplane so I can connect 3 of the disk drives to the internal SAS controller and the other 3 to an added SAS card. I have 2 cards available IBM feature 5901 which is a PCIe 4X sas card and an IBM 5912 which is a PCIX 4X sas card. My...

I have 2 PH660's that both have video cards in them, they are each cabled to a KVM. The KVM died and since then have rebooted the servers, now that I have replaced the KVM I still don't have any video. I assume when the server starts up it checks to see if there is return signal on the video...

I have many AIX servers ranging from 4.3.3.3 to 6.1. I always hate looking at the disks on the older boxes because I have to translate the 512 blocks or 1024 blocks to gigs. Where as the new servers have the df -g. Is there a way to upgrade the df command on the older servers to display...

I am currently in all the VIO docs learning as fast as I can. I have a P520 express server that has 6 disk slots in it. I am going to split the backplane and install 2 146GB and 4 450GB drives. I'm trying to figure out how the disks will get assigned if I want to install 1 VIO server and...

We had a box go offline this morning and this is all I see in the errrpt. I'm researching with IBM now, but always like to hear other real world scenarios and discussions. LABEL: SYS_RESET IDENTIFIER: 1104AA28 Date/Time: Fri Oct 19 04:48:49 Sequence Number: 72968 Machine...

We have a development test box that has a corupted / filesystem. I've tried to boot to the cd, but it auto starts the installation. Is there a way I can boot to the cd to manually run the fsck. Here is the output when booting. SunOS Release 5.9 Version Generic_118558-34 64-bit Copyright...

How do I determine what has been added to the system with the pkgadd command?

I can not get the machine to stop at the ok prompt. The hardware boots up and then it autoboots into the OS. I need to interupt this proces to get to the ok prompt.ust can't remember how. I see in the OpenProm I can set a parm that says auto-boot false. That would take care of this, but I...

What is the command in Solaris 9 to see what devices are installed on the system and what drivers are running. I am installing a new TekSystem Fibre card, but don't recall the commands.

we rebooted a system and a LV didn't come back on line. I ran an fsck -y on the un-mounted volume and it fixed all kinds of things. After it finished it mounted fine and we could get the data. What causes these file system problems dirty inodes and bad superblocks. I thought dirty inodes were...

I rebooted a system and a directory didn't mount up so I ran fsck on it and then it mounted fine. What causes the dirty inodes and bad superblocks??

We are having weird things, well corupted index's on a customers system. We have seen this in the past when a customer uses kill -9 to stop certain processes. They say no one does this. I know I can log in as a particular user and look through that users history, but on a system with 60+...

I have a rather long file system list and I umounted a filesystem and then mounted it back. Now when I do a df the filesystem in question is now at the bottom of the list. Is there any way to re-organize the list and why does it move to the bottom?

When I do a ps aux I see 6 kproc at the top of the list each at about 15%. I am a little familar with the system I/O, but is this showing me that the kernel is chewing up the cpu% for I/O. Can you have Kernel I/O and Asynch I/O at the same time?? How can I find out where this I/O is taking...

We have an AIX 4.3.3 system that just goes offline. The network dies and so does the console. So you have no way of connecting to the box. or any apps running on that box. IBM hardware says everything is fine and that it must be an app process spawning out of control, eating all resources...
