    Problem with output after separating script lines

    I think you are over processing it. set each line to a var = echo line | wc -w You then know if you need to split the line if you need to split it split it with cut into two var's sline=echo line | cut -c 1-32 eline= echo line | cut -c 33-$[var} echo "$sline \\ " echo " $eline"...

    network connectivity to P750 dual VIO server

    why hook lhe ports to VIO, The whole point of them is to setup links directly to the lpars and bypass VIO control of the lhe cards.

    How to administer an AIX with Trusted AIX

    AIX TCB - the TRUSTED COMPUTING base - This is just an ODM flag that enable the creation of a syschk file where it registers the OS file bit size, chksums etc. AIX TCB is not like solaris Trusted shell, its just an add on. AIX TCB will not stop TL/SP installs, it only affects migrations. (...

    can applied SP be rejected?

    MOST SP's can be unapplied, when you apply a TL many times some filesets get commited. Best case, when applying a TL make a mksysb or alt_disk_clone for backout. But yes, most SP's can be unapplied..

    Downing one network adapter stops access to both adapters.

    While the route commands will work, also check the odm attributes of your sys0 , you will probably have to do a chdev on syso and adjust the route in the ODM or on next reboot, it will be a gotcha.

    how to create the file sytem

    crfs Command Purpose Adds a file system. Syntax crfs -v VfsType { -g VolumeGroup | -d Device } [ -l LogPartitions ] -m MountPoint [ -n NodeName ] [ -u MountGroup ] [ -A { yes | no } ] [ -p {ro | rw } ] [ -a Attribute= Value ... ] [ -t { yes | no } ]

    Disable -NFS Server

    AIX is has tools for inittab edits, mkitab , rmitab . You can just remove it and readd it with a comment and stopsrc -g nfs will stop all nfs and rpc services. And yes, no nfs/rpc means no NIM. ( it will fail at least, probably should remove the nim client from inittab as well in that case )

    root 100% full

    Yeah the find -xdev trick is the first thing I do, If you still cant find the file check lsof to see if someone remove a log and the file handle is still open .

    hmc : open console of lpar but can't type anuthing???

    Check your new machine, the LED has a setting on all new machines , sometimes it has to be changed to allow HMC interface. Check the models manual. I had to do this for my P550's when they came. Just switch the LED from standalone to HMC controled, reboot and walla. See if thats it.

    AIX rootvg + install question

    IF you install on a mirrored set of disks on the rootvg, you can not go back. You updated both disks. If you have broken the mirror ( with alt_disk_vg or manually ) then you could have. Restore it with mksys is best suggestion then use alt_disk_install if able. The old manual way works but is...

    onDemand + TSM

    I worked on an IBM account that used TSM and ondemand for check imaging. There is a OnDemand API that talks to TSM. Much like the API's for the oracle and sql TDP solutions for TSM.

    mksysb on LPARs

    NIM is still the standard, but we use alt_install_vg's for Regattas and P5's. Why ? Well, it so easy now to swap disks on these large systems - keep a lpar in a system and alt_vg it. Then we keep our mksysimages on an NFS. If a system needs restored - we diag down the disks so we can remove...

    Reduce PP size in rootvg

    hm, You could use the alt_disk_isntall if you had a mirrored rootvg. Just make sure to run it staggared and alter the new Vg's PP size, then restore a mkssyb to it and wake it and boot, If all goes well youll have a new PP size for your Rootvg and can wipe the old one.

    This is run in order to make the cfgmgr run serial over the childern, it help keep scsi id order on devices added. Normally used when you want to keep the same device id's assigned to the same ODM devices. Case example, I want to configure all the fiber drives on one adapter first, cfgmgr -S...
