    Bad Hdisk

    diag then choose 'Task Selection' then choose 'Certify Media' select the suspect disk with enter, and then F7 to commit. If you really want to format, then that option is also available from task selection.

    list is too long - error

    I think what is happening here, is that the shell is matching all your R* files and expanding these into a list ( which is too big ). You need to stop the shell from doing this, and do your pattern matching a different way. The following should achieve this, although it might be a bit...

    list is too long - error

    I have a feeling that won't work, because the ls pipes all of its output in one go into xargs. In any case, the ouput would look a mess. Try ls |xargs -n1 ls -al instead.

    Inetd.conf problems

    ...and also - you aren't looking for these daemons as running processes, are you? You won't see them - they are invoked via incoming TCP requests through inetd. ( ok you probably know that, in which case just ignore me. )

    rsh to NT-Server

    This is a shot in the dark as I am talking about something I know very little about, but on this occasion, I don't think I'll let that hold me back: Have you looked at cygwin?? Rather than disillusion you with my interpretation of it ( which would probably describe something completely...

    Missing Memory on H80

    lppchk ran without output, and instfix shows all MLs fully installed.

    Verification of a savevg backup

    Although I haven't used it, listing files ( i.e. almost verifying ) from a savevg backup should be the same as for a mksysb - the restore command is used for this.

    Installing SNAPP

    I'd guess this is a niche subject area, but I do need to add one last reply, as my last posting is not correct. The snapp daemon does not need to be aliased as snapp - instead it should be used as a shell for the snapp user. This also prevents idle korn shells hanging on to the tty ( point 3...

    sed does not work properly

    I'd guess you are having multiple instances on a line, and you are only transforming the first one. You need the global clause: cat file | sed "s/c34/s2/g" > test hth Mark

    Memory and swap usage

    Using *some* paging space isn't necessarily a bad thing. Have a look at: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixbman/prftungd/2365ch7.htm#47667 hth Mark

    AIX message, canelling a print job

    Presumably this is only coming out on your console device. The easy way out would be to use a different terminal...? If not, then I think you would have to mess about with /etc/syslog.conf.

    Installing SNAPP

    Thanks, Ken. If I'm going to get nice purple stars, then I might as well share a bit more info. This is what I have discovered through trial and error, in the absence of any useful documentation: 1. You need to have a user called 'snapp' set up, that doesn't have a password :-( and that allows...

    Installing SNAPP

    I thought I'd pass this on, to save some of the grief I've been through with it. SNAPP is an XML based PDA interface to RS6000 Administration - you plug your PDA into the serial port and you can do all sorts of whizzy admin tasks. ( Apparently - I haven't tried it out yet. ) There's a catch...
