Operating Systems AIX Cannot uninstall powerpath - bosboot issues Post 302371407 by zxmaus on Saturday 14th of November 2009 02:53:22 PM

Hi,

the solution I put in place was just create a file and copy the content of the original license file in - when you extract it, you can read it - and no I could not install the original license file back - that was part of the problem Smilie

Code:
cat << _EOF_ >> /etc/emcp_registration
# DO NOT EDIT!  EMC PowerPath Registration data. VER 100
xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
_EOF_

After putting this in place, I had no more issues to drop the packages and install new ones. BTW - after patching about 300 AIX boxes by now I was running into this issue exactly 4 times - this helped each and every time.

Kind regards
zxmaus

UNICODE_START(1)					      General Commands Manual						  UNICODE_START(1)

NAME
unicode_start - put keyboard and console in unicode mode SYNOPSIS
unicode_start [font [umap]] DESCRIPTION
The unicode_start command will put the keyboard and console into Unicode (UTF-8) mode. For the keyboard this means that one can attach 16-bit U+xxxx values to keyboard keys using loadkeys(1), and have these appear as UTF-8 input to user programs. Also, that one can type hexadecimal Alt-xxxx using the numeric keypad, and again produce UTF-8. For the console this means that the kernel expects UTF-8 output from user programs, and displays the output accordingly. The parameter font is a font that is loaded. It should have a built-in Unicode map, or, if it hasn't, such a map can be given explicitly as second parameter. When no font was specified, the current font is kept. NOTE
Unicode mode is a parameter with a value per virtual console. However, usually the font and keymap is common to all consoles. SEE ALSO
dumpkeys(1), kbd_mode(1), loadkeys(1), unicode_stop(1), utf-8(7), setfont(8) 3 Feb 2001 UNICODE_START(1)
