    Resume for a promotion

    I'd also suggest to not go the 'writing letters' direction immediately as some people might think you are a bit arrogant. Pinpoint the position you feel you're comfortable in and you need to be able to know exactly why and how you can fulfill that position in a pro-active way. Ie know your...

    ifconfig

    Command looks pretty good to me, but if uncertain, do the setup via Sam and then afterwards look in the Sam log for the command for future reference.

    UDBv7.2 on AIX4.3

    hi guys, thanks for the feedback. Eventually I saw that the links in the system directories all pointed to the udb6.2 libraries. Used the command 'db2rmln' to remove these links and changed the db2profile file to search the local version's (either 6 or 7) directories first for libraries and...

    How to get back the previously typed command in the screen?

    Can I use an EXTERNAl hard drive?

    I haven't any experience with USB device on a Unix system, but I'd say just plug in the drives and see if you can see it when listing the disks. Create device files and off you go. Regards, George

    change name of filesystem

    No, there shouldn't be any changes required since you are not changing anything on the logical volume. You only need to unmount the filesystem, create the new mountpoint directory and mount the filesystem there. To have this automated change the /etc/fstab file also thogli advised. Regards...
