IY17981 fix required for aix 4.3.3 to aix 5L migration but not found
Hi,
redbook documentation is telling that IY17981 fix is required for aix 4.3.3 to aix 5L migration. But there is no mention about that fix in any ML installation packages.
- My system is ML11 :
oslevel –r
4330-11
- But xlC.rte is on wrong version :
lslpp -L xlC.rte
xlC.rte 4.0.2.0 C C Set ++ Runtime
- and documentation is saying :
If the xlc.rte level is earlier than 5.0.2.x, you must apply APAR
IY17981 before migrating to AIX 5.3. Without APAR IY17981 installed, the
migrated system might fail to boot
- in aix package :
IY17983 does exist, but IY17981 does not.
Thanks if you have any idee.

lldptool(8) Linux lldptool(8)
NAME
evb - Show / manipulate EVB TLV configuration
SYNOPSIS
lldptool -t -i ethx -V evbCfg -c enableTx
lldptool -T -i ethx -V evbCfg -c enableTx=[yes|no]
lldptool -t -i ethx -V evbCfg -c fmode
lldptool -T -i ethx -V evbCfg -c fmode=[bridge|reflectiverelay]
lldptool -t -i ethx -V evbCfg -c capabilities
lldptool -T -i ethx -V evbCfg -c capabilities=[rte|ecp|vdp|none]
lldptool -t -i ethx -V evbCfg -c rte
lldptool -T -i ethx -V evbCfg -c rte=[<rte>]
lldptool -t -i ethx -V evbCfg -c vsis
lldptool -T -i ethx -V evbCfg -c vsis=[<number of vsis>]
DESCRIPTION
The EVB TLV is a TLV to announce the station and bridge's edge virtual bridging (evb) capabilities and request the bridge forwarding mode.
If both sides have agree on edge control protocol (ECP), VSI discovery protocol (VDP) capabilities, both sides can exchange VDP TLV using
ECP frames. The vsis parameter will set the maximum number of VSIs and show the number of currently configured VSIs.
ARGUMENTS
enableTx
Enables the EVB TLV to be transmitted
fmode shows or sets the forwarding mode between bridge (default) or reflectiverelay (RR).
capabilities
shows or sets the local capabilities that are announced to the adjacent switch in the TLV. This parameter will accept any combina-
tion of rte, vdp or ecp, separated by ",". Use the keyword "none" if you do not want to set any capabilities.
rte shows or set the local run time exponent (RTE). The RTE will be used as the base for the timing of the ECP and VDP protocols.
vsis shows or sets the number of virtual station interfaces (VSIs) that are announced to the adjacent switch in the TLV. This parameter
expects a number between 0 and 65535.
Theory of Operation
The EVB TLV is used to announce and exchange supported parameters between the station and an adjacent switch.
If "reflectiverelay" is set as forwarding mode, the switch will allow "reflection" of frames coming from different sources at the same port
back to the port. This will allow communication between virtual machines on the same host via the switch.
The capabilities parameter is used to set RTE, ECP and VDP support. VDP TLVs in ECP frames can only be exchanged if both sides agree on ECP
and VDP as capabilities. RTE will be used as the base timing parameter for ECP and VDP.
EXAMPLE & USAGE
Display locally configured values for eth8
lldptool -t -i eth8 -V evbCfg

lldptool -t -i ethx -V evbCfg -c capabilities
Set the locally possible capabilities to RTE, ECP and VDP
lldptool -T -i ethx -V evbCfg -c capabilities=rte,ecp,vdp
Resets the locally possible capabilities to "none"
lldptool -T -i ethx -V evbCfg -c capabilities=none
Display the locally configured value for RTE
lldptool -t -i ethx -V evbCfg -c rte
Set the value for RTE
lldptool -T -i ethx -V evbCfg -c rte=[<rte>]
Display the configured maximum number of VSIs

NOTES
Currently the code in lldpad reflects draft 0 of the upcoming standard. EVB TLVs on the wire can be decoded with wireshark > v1.6.
