    'bootlist' not updating bootlist

    'bootlist' not updating bootlist

    I enter 'bootlist -m normal cd0' Then I run 'bootlist -om normal' It returns: cd0 But when I issue 'shutdown -Fr' it will not boot off of the CD. It works for rmt0 and hdisk0, and I can mount and 'ls' CD's so the drive is good. Updating the bootlist with 'diag' does the same thing. The...

    What permissions to set

    The 'r' permission in the directory lets you 'ls' it. But the 'x' in the directory lets you 'cd' into it. In order to cat files, you have to have permission to &quot;be in&quot; that directory. <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a...

    free=true in /etc/filesystems

    I saw something new in a new AIX image I received from IBM for a class. The entry free=true (or false) in /etc/filesystems. Does anyone know what that means. It is not in the redbook or web-based documentation. <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a...

    telnet in 6.2

    I have the same problem again (two months later.) I don't think it has to do with 6.2. I cannot telnet to the loopback (127.0.0.1) or from any other host. I get a error message stating &quot;connection refused.&quot; I have added the approriate hosts to /etc/hosts.allow and verified that...

    Clone???

    Also, If you want to clone the ENTIRE system (i.e. All VG's) It requires multiple steps. The previoulsly mentioned mksysb for rootvg and 'savevg' for the other VG's. A separate utility called sysback will handle it all for you at once. I sat in on a demo of version 5 and it is slick. You...

    Mirroring disk drives

    Yes, Mike is right, mirroring is done at the LV level and you can specify the target disk in SMIT when doing the mklvcopy. New with 4.3.2 (I think) is the mkvgcopy that allows mirroring an entire VG. You may want to check that out also. <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a...

    I have a question from a student that I honestly do not know: In /e

    I have a question from a student that I honestly do not know: In /etc/filesytems, why are double quotes used for some FS's vol attribute and not others? For example: /home: dev = /dev/hd1 vol = &quot;/home&quot; /usr: dev = /dev/hd2 vol...

    /bHow do i stop mytcpip daemons from running on strtup

    ElgisRamon is right, you have to have tcp/ip in order to run CDE.&nbsp;&nbsp;After all each window is a client.&nbsp;&nbsp;Most important is your local loopback.&nbsp;&nbsp;Whenever your CDE hangs, try running:<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;# ifconfig lo0 up<br><br><br>Also, when it does...
