I am trying to install the oracle agent on for an AIX 5.3 box with 64 bit architechure. I know that in 64 bit it has to monitor in a proxy configuration. I currently have the symapi server running. The next step is to push out the oracle agent from the console. The problem I am having is that it...

First let me start by saying I am a Storage guy mostly but I do understand AIX for the most part. I am looking to find out where I can get a list of APARs that pertain to PowerPath 5.1. Here is what I am looking for. I have a customer that is looking to add just the APARs from ML7 to their box...

Never mind I was wrong. This does work with ranges. Bad day I guess.

I believe that Jie is correct with one caviot. I believe that if you are converting a port from a FA port to an RA port I believe it uses both the A and B processor on that card. I may be wrong here but talk to your CE from EMC and he can help you get the BIN set up. This is not a change you...

Ok I know this can be done and I am banging my head against the wall. I want to be able to Map Meta Volumes to the FA using ranges but only want the meta head to actually get mapped. If that makes any since. Here is my config file. map dev 00F1:0160 to dir 04B:0, starting lun=001; map dev...

My knowledge of DMP is going back a couple of years here but.... Basically the big difference is how the software handles load balancing between the paths. DMP does it through a round robin approach and Powerpath does it by knowing which path is the least loaded. Also Powerpath will fail back a...

About 210 miles and we are not using TCPIP. It will be over DWDM.

I need to find out if any of you have ever used a SAN Simulator and have had good luck with it. I am looking for a Simulator that will simulate a specific distance for remote replication. We have a need to replicate over a longer than normal distance in sync mode. If you have any reccomendations...

I am new to scripting so I appreiciate any help that I can get. I am under the gun right now and this is the last part to get this to work. $len is equal to the number of entries in a file minus the newest entry. I am trying to use my variable of $len in my head command. Something is not...

Ok here is what I am trying to do. I need to SCP files from one server to the other at intervals. As I send the files I am going to append a file with the filenames of everything that I send. (This is only for a 2 day migration) Archive logs are what I am sending. As the files are sent more...

comtec17 There are many reasons for doing this. Check out ibrix's site. Content management is one reason. Check out some of their case studies. You may be amazed by what this can be used for and how I thought like you a month ago and now I am looking forward to trying to get this to work. :))

I am working on a similar project right now and we are looking at IBRIX Ibrix will allow filesystems in the petabytes. It is relatively cheap and from what I can tell is the industry leader. It will allow for 1000's of hosts to serve that filesystem. Ok the geek in me is saying this is some...

If you get to the point and want to look at a really good storage solution. Do a search on EMC's AX150. It gives you everything that there larger frames have to offer but on a scale that is for Small to medium businesses. You can have 750 GB to 6TB in a 2u configuration and expansion is easily...

Does anyone know if you can manage the AX150 with ECC? I know it comes with Navi express but I want to be able to monitor it via the EMC control center. Are there agents that you can get to monitor this array? Thank you,
