Hello all,

Hoping someone can simply comment. I have numerous AIX servers attached to both physical and virtual tape libraries. errpt on these servers always seems to be generating error...

Thanks for the updates... appreciated. One of the SA's who supports my app has advised me that a few network interfaces went into defined state over a year ago. I'm not suggesting something...

All,

Hoping you can help. I'm wondering how I can determine how long a device (network interface) has been in a defined state. Know there's a way, just can't figure it out.

Thanks in...

Hello All,

Really hoping someone can help. We have an AIX server connected to a Quantum SDLC sitting in front of an S10K library. The library has 3 logical partitions (two LTO4, one LTO3), so...

I have one 4GB, dual port HBA. Is each port rated for 4GB, or is it the whole HBA rated for 4GB?

Also, how do I determine which is port0 / port1 with "lscfg -vl fcs0" command. Thanks.

Hope I'm in the right place. I'm in the process of zoning HBA's to my new library environment. Is there a "rule of thumb" for the number of physical tape drives that you zone to an HBA? I don't...

Padow,
So I have 17 free PP's in the VG. I guess I need to create another LV and assign the PP's to it?

I have free pp's in my volume group. What is the command to add those pp's to used pps. I'm using RAWLV's. Thanks.

Ok... this is getting interesting. Here is the proposal: 4 dual ported NICS, two switches, 4 VLANS. However, this setup prevents me from doing etherchannel/link aggregation. My goal is to present...

funksen, what are the pros/cons of one vlan vs. 4 vlans. This, as you might guess, is a new server that will be dedicated to 4 TSM instances. I'm thinking maybe I want one vlan coming in and all 8...

I have 1 AIX server, 4 dual ported fiber attached ethernet cards and 4 VLANS coming in. Is it possible to present those 8 ports as 1 IP address using etherchannel? Thanks.

Sure was a type o. Thanks. There goes the first wasted hour of my day.

Can someone help me out here. I can't get this piece of code to work. i.e. $ALL_EVENTS does not get interpreted in the if brackets. The first part is the code, the second part is the execution of...

era, it's a perl script, not shell.

Hello all,

I'm attempting to sent an e-mail with the following funtion in my script. The tested that the logic is correct with another native os command, but I can't seem to get mail to work. I...

I'm using the command "lscfg -vpl rmt*" to view all of my tape devices. However, it only works intermittently. Able to run it (sometimes) on both 5.2 and 5.3. Any ideas?

Hi,

I'm running AIX5.2 with 3584 tape lib attached. I'm trying to determine the element number associated with each drive using the following command.
"tapeutil -f /dev/rmt0 elementinfo"

I...

Thanks for the input... interesting posts. One states: "must be something wrong with machine", other states: "... everytime the server reboots, we reconfigure...".
Apparently, I'm not the only one...

Hi all,

Sometimes, when I reboot my AIX server, my tape drive /dev/rmt# assignments change. This creates some tedious TSM work prior to and after a reboot of the server.
Is there a way to...

Hello all,

Here's the deal. lscfg -pvd rmt* does give the serial number on a different line. I'm trying to get the output on the same line.
The reason I need the SN# is that upon reboot of...

I need the SERIAL NUMBER for the rmt as well.

Hi all,

Looking for an ls** command to display my tape drives and their associated serial numbers. thx.

Sorry... that's KSH.

Hi,

I'm attempting to take the following input list and create an output file as shown below. I've monkeyed around for long enough. Can anyone help?
NOTE: fs*** will be header and I want to...
