I spoke with an IBM CE a few months ago about problems the 6m1's were having with the system planers. You might want to give hardware support a call. Just to be safe.

You are very welcome. Glad I could help.

Hi Mayday, Sorry you are having problems but I am glad reinstalling Hyperterminal allowed you to connect. I have one question. Is it asking to assign the console, or is it giving you the standard AIX login prompt. If it is asking to asssign the console, try preesing f1 or te 1 key that is...

I was able to get this to work You have to specify the sdout since you are not running smit directly from a terminal. #!/usr/local/bin/perl -w $err_msg=&quot;Operation Failed Contact Help Desk&quot;; $cl=system(&quot;clear&quot;); $tty=`who am i | cut -c 13-18`; $menu=<<'printq_menu'...

From what I know c31 is a Led code that indicates that the CD-ROm is not bootable, you my try to recreate the CD from the 6-M1 and retry, If there are too many hardeware differences between the 6m1 and the 270, It may not boot. But more than often it is the CD, Try to mount the cd on a seperate...

I have run into this problem before, and the only way I got around it was a reboot.

Are you doing this as root?

I would have to agree. INIT_RAPID is a kind of gereric catch all for programms that are set to respawn, but for some reason do so too rapidly. i.e. the program terminates as soon as it is spawned. it can happen to getty sessions (tty's) and programs alike. I would either restart the box, or edit...

Hi guys, Is there any way possible to limit telnet sessions to AIX from a PC. All of our users login to AIX with the same user account. Sometimes they run multiple sessions from pc which is causing some issues. Thanks as always for your help, Micheal

one thing you can try is adding clocal to the STTY attributes for RUN time and LOGIN. make sure you have login set to enable. and you can check for a getty session by doing a ps -ef |grep getty at a root prompt. Hope that helps Micheal

Dave you are the man!

GEE, I feel so silly. I was using the smit, SYSTEM STORAGE MANAGER, FILES AND DIRECTORIES, LIST CONTAETS OF A BACKUP. a mksysb creates an image not actual files. did a listvgbackup -f'/dev/rmt0' and they showed up nicely Thanks a lot though, yet set me on the right track sheepishly, micheal

Hi guys, Got a question about a mksysb, I create one using SMIT, and the process goes without errors. However when I try to varify its contents, I get &quot; The archive is not in backup format.&quot; What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help :)

thanks aixqueen, I found the problem late Friday evening, had a user that &quot;X'ed&quot; out of a telnet session while copying to the directory the file system was on. After a reboot, I unmounted the file system and ran fsck and all apears to be well again. :) thanks for your help. Mike

hi guys, Agian I am having a problem, I cannot copy to a directory. I am getting a : cp: &quot;filename&quot;: Invalid file system control data detected. If anyone has any idea what this means, i would be very grateful.

Talked to my NT guy, it seems as If you may be trying to log into the RS as whatever you are logged into the NT as. Try to create a user on the RS for the NT machine or vice versa and see if that helps.

As far as I know you can change the attributes with the chfs command. Example &quot;chfs -a Large File Enabled = True /DATA&quot; would change /DATA to enable large files. I dont know the command just to diplay, though.

Hi, Thanks again for your help, but I found the issue. I checked the mqueue directory again, found a message stating that mail could not write to /usr/spool/mail/root: Permission Denied. I did a ls -al on the mail directory, and, sure enough, the root file belonged to the system group instead...

Yes it has worked in the past. I think it stopped mailing after a reboot. Mail is working for other users just not root. Thanks for your help. mike1

Hi ya'll Having a problem with mailing to root. I have a comand in the cron to perform a backup and mail the result to root. The cron command is ./dobackup | /usr/bin/mail &quot;backup success&quot; root where dobackup is the script to perform the backup. The backup are taking place, and...
