I need to NFS mount <Yogi root>\directory1\direcotry2 on my AIX servers an ideas on the filesystem stanze for /etc/filesystems? I'm familiar with NFS, but not with mounting a system i IFS directory on AIX - all help appreciated thank you. Mike Davison

turns out my mcafee firewall was blocking the IP, so I have sorted that and fixed this. Mike Davison

We've moved a DS4700 and attached servers from one site to another and it will be getting an IP address change for the out-of-band management. It is going from 172.29.0.109 and 172.29.0.110 to 172.29.16.193 and 172.29.16.194 now it has been moved and plugged into the network - how the heck to...

I've set up a QMGR on my iSeries, listening on port 1416, but I cannot connect to it using MQ explorer on a remote server. The remote server is a monitoring server and we have MQexplorer up on a large plasma screen to watch channel activity. It works fine with other queue managers, but this is...

So how does one set up a dedicated storage node on AIX to use devices in a shared library? Mike davison mike.davison@avon.com

Yes it worked, but our WAN wasn't beefy enough to take the index backup, so we had to back the change out. So, yes this does work, but make sure your WAN can take it! Thanks maverick Mike davison mike.davison@avon.com

Legato doesn't support makesysb for AIX. You need to have a local tape to perform a makesysb. HTH MD Mike davison mike.davison@avon.com

However, if you have a connectivity problem, it will still be trying in the morning! Mike davison mike.davison@avon.com

We have 2 x 3590 tapes on a sun E450 that allow up to 16 target sessions per tape device, and we never have any problems with recoveries. Depends on the type and speed of your tape device really. If target sessions is set to 1 that means you can only back up ONE volume/filesystem at a time...

Don't think you can actually list the files in a saveset, but you can check the messages log as that should summarize how much data has been backed up from each server volume. good starting point HTH Mike davison mike.davison@avon.com
