Does anyone know if it's possible to shutdown one of the power supplies in a Catalyst 6509 running CatOS 6.4 from the CLI? I
looked at the "set module power down" command but it doesn't look like that will work.
I recently upgraded one of our development V440s from Solaris 9 to Solaris 10 (update 9). The system has 4 X 1.6GHz CPUs, 8GB of RAM, an 8GB swap partition on the internal boot disk and a 20GB swap file on a SAN disk. One of the developers reported that a test that starts 1001 processes slows...
Is there a benefit to cloning a tape by individual ssid vs. cloning the entire tape? I am asking because we have now run backups to a VTL and dump data to tape via a script that clones the VTL tapes by ssid. Once the data has been dumped to tape we clear the VTL tapes for the next backup by...
I am attempting to add a second Sepaton virtual tape library to our Solaris 9 (Sun Fire V440) Networker (7.2.2) server. I did not add the first Sepaton VTL so I am rather new at this. Both Sepatons and the V440 are connected to a Brocade switch which which is zoned. I am able to see the new...
We are upgrading our Solaris Networker server with a newer machine. The original server is running 7.1.1. I have installed 7.2.1 on the new machine. I know that I will need to contact EMC to get new authorization codes but what is the easiest way to move the indexes, groups and other...
I have been asked to move the IBM C Compiler from AIX 5.1 to 5.3 on our multi-boot 7044-270 system. Can this be done without the C Compiler media? I can't find it with our AIX 5.1 CDs.
I am attempting to add an additional host to our FC4700. The host is a SunFireV440 running Solaris 9 with a single QLogic 2340 HBA. The V440 is directly connected by fiber to one of the two EMC DS-16B switches inside of the FC4700. I have downloaded and installed the latest QLogic drivers and...
I am attempting to export a volume group called sanvg consisting of a single SAN disk from a 5.1 environment into a 5.3 environment. Both OSs live on a seperate disks in a 7044-270. I umounted the volume group filesystem, ran the exportvg sanvg command and received the below error.
# exportvg...
I just added a 10GB SAN disk to our 7044-270 running 5.1. The disk is hdisk6. I am attempting to add it to an existing volume group called sanvg and mount it as /sanperf. Here is what I did. Am I missing something simple here? I don't have a lot of experience with AIX as we are primarily a Sun...
We are getting "unable to access security information" when attempting to access Navisphere on our 4700 SPs via a browser. This message pops up after the Navisphere splash screen just before the login screen. I am pretty sure this is firewall related as this worked prior to recent ACL changes...
I just downloaded and installed the driver for a 6228 HBA in AIX 5.1. I need to configure the HBA. Is there a .conf file somwhere to do this? I saw the "change the characteristics of an FC adapter" option in smit but the options I need to set were not listed. I need to set the HBA to 2GB and to...
We have a 7044-270 that takes 15 minutes to reboot. I powered off the server, connected to a serial port and found that fastboot was already enabled in the service processor menu. I didn't see anything else in any of the service processor menus that could cause the slow boot. I don't think this...
I have a system that dual-boots AIX 5.1 and 5.2. It is possible to mount a logical volume from the rootvg of 5.1 when the system is booted into 5.2? If so how would I do this?
The root disk has failed on one of our Solaris systems and needs to be restored. Do we need to reinstall Solaris and the networker client on the system or is there a way to boot from the Solaris CD and initiate the recover?
I had a brief power outage in my home lab and my 2621 displayed the below message after it restarted. Does this look like the flash has become corrupt? If so what do I need to do to correct this?

Is there a way to add and remove clients from groups via the command line on a Solaris networker server? Information on creating new clients and restarting group backups from a command-line would also be helpful. Displaying the GUI accross a WAN can be very slow.
I am new to AIX and am attempting to setup a new eServer P5 9110. Can I use one of the HMC ports on the back of the server for a console connection (like a Sunbox or Cisco switch)? If so what type of cable do I need? I tried connecting via a Cisco rollover cable connected to a laptop. I also...
The Solaris hosts connected to our FC4700 have an empty <LUN mountpoint>.lun within each LUN. One LUN was recently moved from one host to another but it is missing the .lun file. All of the data seems to be on the LUN. Is this significant? What is the purpose of the .lun file?
