In looking at my AIX 5.3 box:

Code:
AIX:stctivprd01$ ls -li ksh sh
 6340 -r-xr-xr-x   4 bin      bin          243428 Mar 03 2005  ksh
 6340 -r-xr-xr-x   4 bin      bin          243428 Mar 03 2005  sh

I see that sh and ksh are linked. So from within /bin type:

Code:
# ln ksh sh

And that should take care of that. Smilie

optisa - determine which variant instruction set is optimal to use SYNOPSIS
optisa instruction_set... DESCRIPTION
optisa prints which instruction_set out of the ones specified in the command will perform best on this machine. In this case, ``best'' is defined by the order in which instruction set names are returned by isalist(1). Possible values for instruction_set are given in isalist(5). ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcsu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 One of the instruction_set values you specified is printed by this command. 1 There is no output; that is, this machine cannot use any instruction_set that you specified with the optisa command. SEE ALSO
