888 is a system crash message. You need to cycle round the messages using the yellow next button to determine the full message and the actual cause

Depends on the type of KVM. The older IBM kit needs a constant connection to the keyboard via the KVM

I would also check with fuser -xuc /filesystem to check what is lock the FS If you are feeling agreesive use fuser -xuck /filesystem to just kill them.

I don't think you can have more than two six packs in an F40 Have you considered other options such as a couple of SSA cards and external tower. Really cheap to pick up on the 2nd user market these days

Not sure about Tivoli but IBM Director agents are supported on IOS 1.5 and above.

The simplest method would be to setup a nim server. You can then NFS mount a filesystem from the NIM server and just use the mksysb command.

Thanks for the feedback, we have reduced the server RAM to 4 GB but are still seeing the same problem from within Netware i.e. it only shows 3260, 029 Kilobytes of RAM installed. Thanks

Hello, We have a modern Compaq (HP) ML 530 G2 server with 5 GB off RAM installed. The server POST checks 5 GB and verifies the RAM is ok. However within Novell when the memory command is entered the server only claims to have 3260, 029 Kilobytes of RAM installed ? Regards

Hi, We will soon be removing a system which used to host sensitive data and we need a method of ensuring the data cannot be recovered once we have deleted the filesystems. The disks in question are a number of SSA 4.5 and 9.1 Gb disks

I have not seen this problem with AIX 5.2 but I have seen it with 5.1 The problem is that at least 2 versions of the AIX 5.1 CD exist - the way to tell them appart is by the part code or by the release date. If you use the early version then you get the diagnostic menu. Another possibility...

We had a similar problem. The network adapters were set to AUTO NEGIOTATE and by setting to 100 MB FULL DUPLEX we achived much better throughout.

What you can also do put the above commands into a script and then run the scripts, it only takes about 30 secs for the script to complete.

Not sure if any of the pSeries servers can actually tell you the abient temp, however I know the 7133-x40 disk enclosures do so if you have one of them attached to your server you can use the SSA utils to check the temp

Hi, Currently when my Domino team install Lotus onto an AIX server they require root user access and all the files are then owned by root. However when Domino is started the actual processes are owned by the Domino users (notes). Has anybody ever changed the owernship of the files to be owned by...
