    Updated Technology level from 5.3TL7 to 5.3TL12 & C program runs slow

    Hello.. I'm wondering if any one has run into this. I updated AIX 5.3 from TL07 to TL12 and started to get lots of complaints about a slow running C program. I don't see any major system performance issues and have sent IBM performance data. Why is this program running so slow after an O.S...

    backing up a LOT of little files

    I suggest you use "rsync" ... I use it for most file copies and to sync data. It makes a file list then starts your transfer. You can use it to sync or copy files on your local system or you can copy to other systems using NFS mounts (which I recommend). It also has the ability to use ssh or rsh...

    beginner needs help

    Maybe someone can help me with this so I can be on my way learning perl. I gone through a couple books on perl; however, it's not exactly sinking in. Maybe if someone can help me with a script or two I will start understanding Perl. I want to parse the contents of this file. VOLUME...

    SSA cable Connections for HACMP training system

    Yes..I did get 8 empty disk modules and filled the back section of the SSA draw. I don't expect to add more drives anytime soon (this is only for testing HACMP) so the loops should be ok. However, anything else you would like to mention would be appreciated. For right now I am thrilled that my...

    SSA cable Connections for HACMP training system

    Thanks for all your help. First off all the SSA executable files did not have executable permissions. This gave me problems managing the SSA disks from smitty devices and caused problems for the system to configure the drives running "cfgmgr" on reboot. I did format the drives... and when...

    SSA cable Connections for HACMP training system

    Yes.. I was asking if I need disk drive fillers? for the empty slots in the storage array. I only have 8 disks for my 7133-D40. I was able to cable the SSA loops like DukeSSD explained and the drives can be seen with "lsdev -Cc disk", however, one drive did not become available. Also when I try...

    SSA cable Connections for HACMP training system

    I am setting up a test system 2 node ver5.4 HACMP cluster running AIX 5.3 and need some help with cabling a SSA 7133-D40. I have 2 - 44p-170 workstations. Each workstation has a 6230 SSA adapter with 4 ports. I have 8 - 9GB drives and would like information on a basic SSA cable design. If I only...

    Is SSA storage fully compatible with HACMP 5.4?

    I called IBM and opened a PMR. SSA-160 controller or what they call an Advanced Serial Raid adapter ID 4-P is fully compatible with HACMP. All the features you mentioned will work with HACMP 5.4 and AIX 5.3 running the 64bit kernel. http://www.ibmmuseum.com/ohlandl/ssa/SSA_adapters.html FC...

    Is SSA storage fully compatible with HACMP 5.4?

    It looks like SSA is compatible with HACMP, but does it also support: 1. enhanced concurrent volume groups (with active and passive varyonvg of shared VGs) 2. disk heart beat 3. creating shared VGs, LVs and FSs with C-SPOC (dynamically) What SSA model or what type of storage unit will...

    Is SSA storage fully compatible with HACMP 5.4?

    I am building a practice cluster with two 44p-170 workstations. So far I have the cluster configured and working well on a private network. The next thing I would like to do is add storage. I am looking for a cheap storage solution that is fully compatible with HACMP. I am looking to purchase a...

    How can I tell if data is compressed

    My system uses 3:1 compression and I noticed when I did a "q vol" command it lists the Estimated capicity in MB stored on each tape. I looks like the 5 GB tapes are storing almost 15 GB and the 7 GB tapes are storing almost 20 GB with compression. Looks like the compression is working .. Thanks...

    Library not using other tape drives

    I solved my own problem.. Thanks to anyone who considered a solution to my issue. When I ran "q path" I notice that 2 of the tape drives in the silo where not on line within the queue path statment.

    Library not using other tape drives

    Hello fellow TSM people.. I have a TSM system with a L32 magstare tape silo with 4 tape drives. It seems like the only drives being used are rmt2 and rmt3. I notice this during reclaimation and never see the other drives being used. I would like to see rmt0 and rmt1 drive used once in a while...

    sudo and newgrp problem

    Trifo, I checked the process IDs and noticed that the pid for "wpdavids" is the same as the process ppid for the "root" shell. Your right that the newgrp command replaces the current shell for a new one. However, why is it replacing the shell from a regular user to the...
