Need EMC Symmetrix driver for AIX 5.3
Hi all,
I hope I'm putting my first post at this site into the right forum. I need help finding the EMC disk driver for AIX version 5.3. I have some new EMC disk presented to a backup server of mine, and right now the EMC hdisks show up looking like this in an lsdev:
hdisk495 Available **-**-** MPIO Other FC SCSI Disk Drive
This is an AIX 5.3 server.
I poked around EMC's site with no luck. I'm hoping someone here has had to dig these up before.
Sincere thanks,
C.J.

Hi All..
On to a new implementation with AIX 7.1 san boot from EMC disks (Using NPIV). Anyone played with this recently?
Wondering if we need PowerPath on the AIX clients or has native MPIO matured to replace it. Thoughts?
Thanks

geom_uzip
GEOM_UZIP(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual GEOM_UZIP(4)
NAME
geom_uzip -- GEOM based compressed disk images
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:
options GEOM_UZIP
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
geom_uzip_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The geom_uzip framework provides support for compressed read only disk images. This allows significant storage savings at the expense of a
little CPU time on each read. Data written in the GEOM label area allows geom_uzip to detect compressed images which have been created with
mkuzip(8) and presented to the kernel as a logical disk device via md(4). geom_uzip creates a unique md#.uzip device for each image.
The geom_uzip device is subsequently used by the FreeBSD kernel to access the disk images. The geom_uzip driver does not allow write opera-
tions to the underlying disk image. To check which md(4) devices match a given geom_uzip device:
# geom uzip list
Geom name: md1.uzip
Providers:
1. Name: md1.uzip
Mediasize: 22003712 (21M)
Sectorsize: 512
Mode: r1w0e1
Consumers:
1. Name: md1
Mediasize: 9563648 (9.1M)
Sectorsize: 512
Mode: r1w0e1
