Allright, DukeSSD, your hint worked and I was able to finally install the correct Base fileset. The "5.0.0.0" tends to mislead us, (it is contained somehow on the base 5.3.0.0 fileset) but the base installation solved. Installation hints were crucial for using the AIX media in an easier. Thanks...

Relax, I'm 30 miles from site and the licensed CDs. Will give it a try tomorrow.Thanks for now.

Hello. As I said, I have the correct 5.3.0.0 packages and when I try to install they fail, while AIX lists that it needs the "5.0.0.0" version. IBM support said that they do not understand why that is happening and they do not have such a package. I'm stuck at that. Do you think you can send me...

Hello. This is a Dev-VIO server (two frames) running AIX 5.3 LPARs. We are trying to install an Ethernet PCI 4-port card from the VIO as a dedicated ethernet device to one of our Lpars. The DLPAR operation works normally, the HMC reports that the device is assigned to the partition. When we...

Google for Groundwork...and see if it fits. We are struggling with monitoring tools here too... <:|

Hey ho, let´s go: -what are your VIOS (VIO server) LPARs devqa_vios1 devqa_vios2 - what are your VIO client LPARs machine001, machine002....machine008 - which VIOS LPAR has the hardware device/slot that gives access to the CDrom device the devqa_vios1 is the one that has the cd right now...

That´s weird. Also checked /etc/security/limits. It was the correct fsize there. Anyway, changed to fsize=-1, saved and logout/login, it then saved the passwd!

Everything fine with the etc/security/user...but I did find another problem: ulimit "file (blocks) = 1" for the user (jfm user). No matter how, I cannot manage to change the fsize to a bigger size, when root. I believe that is related to the problem... using "chuser fsize=2097151 jfm" where...

P5W, thanks for your patience. I'll provide the info tomorrow.

Yes, I have the physical CD device on the VIO server. But what you told isn't the same as the "$rmdev -dev vhost1 -recursive and $rmdev -dev cd0" I did on the first vios2 LPAR? Or do I have to issue a rmdev -Rdl on the dev_Vios1 so I can configure it on the dev_Vios2?

Did that, compared line to line. It seems to be ok....no spurious characters or entries... <:|

Hello P5W. I am sorry...I guess I did not explain it correctly. This VIO server has two Vios Lpars devqa_vios1 and devqa_vios2. I am trying to move the device from the 1 to 2. In the devqa_vios2 I ran the rmdev -Rld and for some reasons, even when I run the rmdev -recursive on the devqa_vios1...

Hello. Recently, I deleted the CD0 from an LPAR and mounted on one of our VIO servers (in this case the Vios1 out of two). I have tried to remove cd0 from the vios1 and then a cfgdev on the vios2 but this partition never finds the device. like this: $rmdev -dev vhost1 -recursive $rmdev -dev...

Yes... :( [root@xpto]:/usr/bin # ls -latr passwd -r-sr-xr-x 1 root security 27994 May 28 2008 passwd

I just recalled, after doing it again: the file is ok and permissions are absolutely the same as the other boxes...

Either SSH or console... Just tried logging in via console as changing my own password to the new. The new one is not stored.

Hello all. I would like to collect your opinions on these two issues: 1 - What would be the best tool for Monitoring a server farm (Virtualized: 6 modules for 2 productions VIO servers (16 Lpars) and 2 modules for a VIO Development server (8 Lpars). The desired monitoring would be a "plasma...

Hello. Like I did on other 15 boxes, I just defined a simple user in AIX using smitty. All configuration was set default (and compared to the other machines, no modifications). After creating it, I set a password (like 1234) so the user can login and change his password. The user then logs...

Seems logical...but the find -xdev also returns the /usr/sap.......wait a minute. Geez....just found it. People are using /usr/sap and despite there are some (bigger) filesystems under it, there is also a huge diretory (ccms) not filesystem'd! Bingo! Thanks for the light!

Hello. I have been searching the net over two days....what a shame. The problem is as follows: many of our AIX LPAR production /usr directories (allocated on rootvg, / or logical volume hd2) are unexpectedly growing and growing...slowly and steadily. Some of these filesystems cannot be...
