Thanks Sam. I'll use if-then-else form. Works as I desire.

I've searched for a similar solution, but can't seem to get what I'm looking for. It seems like there is a simple answer. I'm putting together a korn shell script that monitors processes to determine if three different Oracle databases are up. I've got a variable that contains the processes...

I've searched but can't find a solution to my .profile not being sourced at login. The server is AIX running 5.3 and I'm accessing CDE through WinAxe. The DTSOURCEFILE is set to true in my .dtprofile, and the .dt/startlog shows that the .profile is being sourced. Sourcing the .profile manually...

BART (Basic Audit Reporting Tool) is available on Solaris 10. This tool provides a simple tool to manage file level auditing. I'm interested in a Solaris 9 comparable tool that will allow me to manage/select the particular files that will be audited for modification activity. BSM (solaris...

You also may wish to refer to a previous thread here. http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1030536 This references the use of MPIO on Hitachi SAN drives.

Check out the thread thread629-1030536 in the Hitachi Data Systems Disk & Raid Solution forum, of which you posted this same question.

Update: The interview went very well. As a matter of fact the hiring manager said that he probably call me that day with an offer. It didn't happen. I mailed him a note of thanks the next day and after a week of no word, I contacted the HR recruiter and was told that it was not a best fit...

Thanks for all your comments. I think it would be in my best interest if I did bring it up and offer comments similar to what hilfy has made. It can't be proven, but I think previous interviews went south after applications detailed my DOB. Explaining my desire to continue working after in...

I'm referring to the normal retirement as determined by SS. I wish to continue regular employment and not taking the SS route. I've been close to other employment opportunities, and even with glowing interviews, no offer letter. Maybe I'm being paranoid, but should I bring it up or let things...

In my position, I feel like the maytag repair man, in that my skills are not being utilized, and there is no indication that they will. You see, I’m a certified specialist in administration and support for AIX 5.3 and my current position became available after accepting a buyout from another...

The p650 is a power 4 and therefore the latest HMC release is 3.3.7.

After verifying and checking out any errpts, you can issue the following command, as root, to clear off the amber light: /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin/usysfault -s normal This function is within the diag, but to me, difficult to drill down to.

Thank you p5wizard. The VG is not mirrored so freeing up a mirrored PV is not possible. You've given me an idea. Instead of freeing up an existing used PV, why can't I allocate a new VG with the new PV, create a unique fs there, copy the LV (cplv), remove the orig. fs and lun, then rename the...

I have a need to replace an existing hdisk with another one. That need is due to some reconfiguration of the SAN luns. The PV is not bad. The volume group is at its maximum amount of physical volumes. Only one jfs2 file system (lv) is wholly contained on this disk. There are other lvs in this VG...

At my previous place, I installed EMC PowerPath. Follow the install instructions that come with it. You will have to remove each of your current PV's and after PowerPath installation, run cfgmgr on each of the adapters. Then there are some additional PowerPath commands.
