AIX 6.1 setting up IP address and gateway
In route table the default should be its local address - 10.168.1.205 Default gateway should be your router - 10.168.1.1 The 8.x.x.x thing, no idea ;0) HTH -
SYSTEM DUMP
AIX 6.1 is out of support, it ended in April 2017. Your AIX TL/SP, TL09 SP04, was released 3 years ago, week 41 of 2014. Why was TL06 recommended, was an APAR identified, if so which one? You might find a fix in the last AIX 6.1 release, 6100-09-09 released in April 2017. Or you could update to... -
550 Arguments too long with FTP Download
It's not an IBM server problem, or it would be shouted about all over the place - and fixed by now... What OS are you trying to download it on? -
550 Arguments too long with FTP Download
Are you root? ulimits? looks like the command argument is too long so it's a limit / ulimit problem, maybe... HTH -
lspv -u
Yeah, and with all that, what do you propose? Bump it to a queue depth of 20 for each lun, with 50 luns on a vscsi adapter - and then sit and watch as they don't configure... Sorry, not sure I get your point. If you want max transfer, bump the queue depth, just make sure you don't max the... -
NPIV "mixed" with VSCSI?
Yeah, VIO fibre adapters can do npiv, vscsi and local luns all at the same time, just don't put a tape device on them ;) No idea, this is an AIX forum ;) -
lspv -u
Depends on how many VTDs are mapped to the adapter. Queue depth of 3 on a vscsi client disk gives 85 luns per adapter with dual VIO, and a couple left over for the vsci frame work - vscsi limit is 512 - dual vio, 85 luns, three queues per, you do the maths... Less luns will let you have more... -
Where does a LPAR store its system date and time between reboots ?
It knows it's time as an off set from the system time. Doesn't matter what the system time is. System time is epoc +something, LPAR time is systime plus some off set. -
hdisk0 defined missing, on same address as hdisk1
You'd be much better off using a supported method, like a mksysb migration. You'll probably need IBM support to learn how to hack out all the old stuff from the ODM to make it behave correctly but they won't help because you didn't use a supported method of migration. Good luck. -
vpath disks
What are the I/O errors? Maybe the sense data will give a better idea of the problem. This book gives a good overview and details of decoding the error sense data: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/systems/hardware_docs/pdf/234329.pdf -
AIX Find files
Not really sure what you are asking for... If you do not have the man pages installed you can read them online: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_aix_61/com.ibm.aix.cmds.navigation/alphabeticallistofcommands.htm?lang=en For the find command... -
AIX /VIO error ---Kernel extension sdduserke was not loaded
Hi The SDDpcm kernel extension is not loaded because no compatible devices were detected or configured. This is normal for a system with SDDpcm installed that has no associated devices. The extension is not loaded because there is no need, there is nothing for it to do so it does not load. The... -
Mirror query
Given the total PPs are the same but the free PPs are different, I think we have two questions... Check out: lsvg -l rootvg If it is mirrored then each PV should have twice as many PPs as LPs (might just be a dump device - they should not be mirrored. if you have one with a mirrored... -
unable to remove disk after migratepv
Just off the top, of my slightly dazed and confused, head... Check for monitoring software that might be holding the disk open / busy Check things like migratepv are not showing in the ps -ef output Use fuser or lsof to check what might be using /dev/hdisk93 If in doubt then it's probably a... -
VIO installation
To install more than one instance of VIOS you MUST have an HMC or an SDMC to carve up the box before the install. If you do not have an HMC or SDMC then the first install will take the whole system... Input your machine type and serial number on this site and let us know the result for us to... -
B6267342 DISK OPERATION ERROR
It ould have been nice if you had posted the whole error report entry to save us looking it up. Things like the host: machine type and model, as well as the AIX version, technology level and service pack might have also have helped. "my computer is broke, help" isn't really going to inspire... -
SAN Boot VIO and NPIV ?
Single path for install is preferred. Then set your lun / disk reserve policy and install any multipath drivers, then bring the other paths on line, configure your preferred boot list and you are good to go. -
AIX Production Readiness Checklist (PRC) - check list
A couple of things to bear in mind for dumps... If you only have SAN storage and you lose all access, then you may not get any errpt information or a dump when things go wrong because none of it can be written to storage that is no longer available. If you sysdumpdev -e to get an idea of the...
