Hey TGP,
You can actually build a spot from a mksysb. I do not have the flags off the top of my head. But you can use the smit menu and go through the administration of selecting your older mksysb to build a spot off of it.
You can then go about performing a bos recovery through the spot and mksysb.
Cheers

Hi all,
I'm trying to understand the requirements for AIX version matching between a SPOT, LPP_SOURCE and my mksysb images. I have a NIM server installed, and I've used it to install new LPARs both from the LPP_SOURCE and from mksysb files. These were based off 7100-00-01.

Friend's,
I was playing around with NIM in my environment & had a quick question in mind which I didn't/couldn't find answer to, which is -- how to find the name of the NIM server sitting on the NIM client?
All leads to the answer would be much appreciated, many thanks!

ps_setcolor
PS_SETCOLOR(3) Library Functions Manual PS_SETCOLOR(3)
NAME
PS_setcolor -- Sets current color
SYNOPSIS
#include <pslib.h>
void PS_setcolor(PSDoc *psdoc, const char *type, const char *colorspace, float c1, float c2, float c3, float c4)
DESCRIPTION
Sets the color for drawing, filling, or both. The colorspace should be one of 'gray', 'spot', 'rgb, 'cmyk', or 'pattern'. Depending on the
colorspace either only the first, the first two, the first three all or remaining parameters will be used. If colorspace is 'pattern' then
c1 must contain the pattern id as returned by PS_begin_pattern(3). If colorspace is 'spot' then the c1 must contain the spot color id as
returned by PS_makespotcolor(3) and the c2 must contain the tint value for the color.
The parameter type can be 'fillstroke', 'fill', or 'stroke'.
BUGS
The second parameter is currently not in any case evaluated. The color is always set for filling and drawing just as if 'both' where
passed. If you want to set the color to define a spot color from it, you will have to pass 'both' or 'fill', because PS_makespotcolor(3)
utilizes the current fill color.
