Thanks for the help - I tried what you suggested - however, the hdbmap scripts seems to go into a loop when I try this (ie hdbmap is displayed continuosly - as if it is looking for an argument. Any ideas?

I have an interactive script - a binary called hdbmap. I would like to know how to run it for a large list of numbers - (using the "del" option for this script - to delete numbers from a database) Example output: I type : hdbmap <enter> f /usr/bin/conf/blabla <enter> (path of config file) I...

I have been asked to create a non clustered index for our sybase database to speed up query response times. This is the first time I have done such a thing. The command I am using is : use DMS_STA go create nonclustered index DMS_STA_TRANSAC_HIST_I1 on DMS_STA_TRANSAC_HIST ( transaction_id1 )...

I have a question about a loop that I need to create. I have about 15 directories each containing about 2000-4000 files. I have to create a loop that creates a tar file containing a maximum of 1000 files. For example directory DIRA contains 2456 files. The loop would create DIRA1.tar...

I don't want to read the raw device, just a table of contents on the tape - if possible. They are logical volumes containing images. Would a tar command have been better to do the backup instead of several dds?

This didn't work: "/dev/rst1: a file or directory in the pathname does not exist" Maybe you meant if=/dev/rmt0. I tried this and there wasn't enough space in the file system. A file "head1" was created but I couldn't read it. Any more ideas?

I have backup up several raw devices to tape using the dd command: dd if=/dev/rXXXXXX ibs=64k of=/dev/rmt0.1 obs=64k dd if=/dev/rXXXXXX2 ibs=64k of=/dev/rmt0.1 obs=64k How can I read the tape to see what has been backed up? I have tried tcopy, but this only lists the files without their names...

Does anyone know where I can download a sysbase central java plugin 11.5.1? I have an AIX machine with sybase ASE 11.5.1 and am trying to connect with an XP pro machine. I have downloaded and installed ASE 12.5.2 on the XP machine but Sybase central will not let me connect because I don't have...

At the moment there is 1 LT0 tape drive and 1 DLT tape drive on the chain. The DLT is directly connected to the server. Here is the errpt output: IDENTIFIER TIMESTAMP T C RESOURCE_NAME DESCRIPTION 0BA49C99 0512105904 T H scsi1 SCSI BUS ERROR 0BA49C99 0512105904 T H scsi1...

We have a problem with 2 scsi tape drives. We have one DLT and one LT0 drive on a chain. The problem was that backups were not working on either tape drive. The error report had some tape drive and scsi buss errors. We have changed the cables. We then decided to remove both (rmdev) tape...

I would like to know if it is possible to disable the print screen button on AIX. We have an application which runs on RS6000s and our users have requested that the print screen option is disabled so that screen prints are not sent to printers by mistake (they want to save money - these prints...

Hi, All our RS6000s run AIX 4.2.1. No upgrade to 4.3 or newer until the bosses tell us ! The tape is an IBM model 7208 011 (8mm 5Gb). There are no errors on cfgmgr -v and no scsi conflicts. Also, any ideas about the keyboard character problem (no Pipe) Thanks

Hi I've just installed AIX 4.2.1 on an RS6000 and since the new installation, I've had a couple of problems. Firstly, I am unable to get the 'pipe' symbol and the some of the keyboard symbols are in the wrong place eg the @ symbol at the ' button instead of 2 button. I am in the UK, using a...

Thanks for your info. I can't get the rs6000 to go into maintenance mode. Any ideas ? Thanks

Hi, Having problems with one of my rs6000s. It won't boot up and sticks at ff7 (alternating with ffd). Does anyone have any ideas what this error code means ? Thanks

Thanks, managed to fix it. Installed a new PCI network card. The original network card is on the motherboard. Marc

Hi, Our site had a power cut last Friday and since then we have been unable to telnet to one of our RS6000s. We have reseated everything and I have removed and reinstalled the ethernet adapter through smitty. I though the problem might be with inetd not running, but it is. When a diag is run...

Hi, This might sound like a stupid question, but I am trying to change some environmental variables in ksh. (For example changing timezone to GB-Eire from US/Central). The command I have entered is TZ=:GB-Eire. This command seems to work, however, when I log out and back in, the env variable...

Thanks for your help, I have backed up 10 logical volumes onto one tape using the dd command. I have now created 10 new logical volumes on a different machine and would like to restore these 10 logical volumes from tape into the 10 logical volumes on this machine.

I have several logical volumes stored on 1 tape. I would like to copy one of these onto a logical volume I have created on my RS6K. I know I have to use the dd command, but how would I copy only 1 logical volume from the tape. Thanks in advance.
