Thanks a million guys; I think you have got to the 'nub' of this particular problem. Our FC scripts currently call rmdev with a '-d' flag when they disable the FC volumes, completely removing the definitions each time. I guess this needs changing.
Do you have any links or good examples of FC enable/disable scripts for AIX ? I'm thinking ours may be lacking in other areas too.
Don't worry Funksen; I understood exactly what you were saying - thanks again.

I have a P570 that for some reason is not allowing the P1-T6 NIC to be recognized. I have confirmed from the HMC that it is set for the LPAR, but when I do a cfgmgr, it won't recognize it. It though is recognizing the slot cards just fine which are P1-C3 for one shelf and P1-C3 of another shelf.... (1 Reply)

Hi All,
I remember my old senior mentor in AIX that cfgmgr should not be terminated on your console. Because if it's terminated in the middle, the odm might get corrupted.
Is that true for AIX 5.x?

cfgmgr(8) System Manager's Manual cfgmgr(8)
NAME
cfgmgr - Configuration management server
SYNOPSIS
/sbin/cfgmgr
DESCRIPTION
The cfgmgr configuration management server works with the kernel load server (kloadsrv) daemon to manage the subsystems that are dynami-
cally configurable, loadable, or both. The cfgmgr server starts up automatically when a client (such as the sysconfig command) makes a con-
figuration management request. Examples of configuration management requests are requests to configure, reconfigure, query, or unconfig-
ure a subsystem.
The cfgmgr server allows query operations from any superuser (root login), local or remote. The superuser on the local system is also
allowed to configure, reconfigure, or unconfigure local kernel subsystems. Remote access to the kernel subsystem configuration is allowed
through the /etc/cfgmgr.auth file. System administrators working on hosts listed in that file can also configure, reconfigure, or uncon-
figure local kernel subsystems. If the /etc/cfgmgr.auth file does not exist or is empty, no remote users are allowed to configure, recon-
figure, or unconfigure local kernel subsystems.
If you use the sysconfig -v command, the cfgmgr server displays debugging information to the /dev/console screen. See the sysconfig(8) ref-
erence page for more information about the -v flag.
