Keyboard not Responding
Put the 432 cd # 1 in the cd drive, turn the key to service and power up the system. Look at my previous post and try to follow it as best you can. If you have problems and want some help, let me know. -
Keyboard not Responding
Then it sounds like either your bootlist doesn't contain hdisk0 in it, or that your internal drive has some physical problems in the boot area. Do you have boot CD media for it? You can set the key to service, and boot from the CDROM to get to a maintenance mode boot session. From there, you can... -
Keyboard not Responding
From my old historical notes, here's what 223 is: 223 Attempting a Normal mode IPL from SCSI-attached devices specified in NVRAM IPL Devices List. Do you hear the hard drives spin up inside the box when you power it up? -
p630's DLPAR ?
I have had this problem for several different reasons. 1) Make sure that you are using the same network naming conventions in all places, i.e.: Short names vs. FQDN names in /etc/hosts on both the LPAR and the HMC 2) Make sure the /etc/resolv.conf is set up correctly, and that the nslookup... -

Do you have Expect installed on your systems? -
AIX Patch Manager?
I'm used to manually maintaining our AIX patches, but that's not the mentality they want to go forward with here. I know that fixdist is no longer for AIX5, so I'm interested in any patch manager apps for AIX5+. Any ideas? Thanks very much. -
Email - Is there a way to make an email send itself out
I have a very simple form that I've built (I'm no web guru) for my neighborhood association at http://spmna.kloek.com/feedback/feedback.htm. The info in this form gets sent via sendmail to me using the methods described here by others. email me at jeff@kloek.com (or just fill in the form) and... -
Extra functionality FTP
Not really via ftp. You could using CA's Xcom, but that's pricey. What you could do is to set up a cron entry that checks for the presence of files in the target directory and act based on that. Man cron and crontab for details. A sample cron entry and script could be... -

Backup tool to restore FS data
I find I trust cpio more for stuff like this. Go to the source directory and do this: find . -print |cpio -pdumv /targetdir You can eliminate the "v" flag if you don't want to see it in action. This does the full recursive copy and maintains all permissions, etc. -
Grep file with lines exceeding 2048 caracters
You might be able to do it with "strings filename |grep text"... -
READ A TAPE
It was likely written with one of the standard utilities, like tar or cpio. Try reading a table of contents with tar -tvf /dev/rmt/0 or cpio -ivBdumct </dev/rmt/0 (or without the "c" flag if you get "out of phase" messages). Neither of these will actually write the data...- Jkloek

Re: AIX File Limit Size (affecting Oracle Backups)
It will be ideal if you can recreate the filesystem as Large File enabled. This cannot be done on the fly in AIX. Changing the characteristics of /etc/security/limits will only affect Oracle activities if Oracle is stopped and restarted. The users who access Oracle tables must log out and back...
