I have been asked to look at an AIX box that the owner (not a technical person) installed a new SCSI disk into, but cannot figure out how to build volumes or file systems on. It has been years since I messed with AIX, and I remember enough to know that it isn't like Solaris.

Hi,
I was wondering if any body out there can tell me how can I find out what is the name of the mail host on the AIX box that I am working on?
Is there any command to bring up the configuration for the mail server or mail host?
Thanks in advance. (4 Replies)
I am trying to find the total CPU usage on an IBM AIX machine that could have several processors. I am using
ps uax | awk {'print $3'} to find the CPU usage columns for the processes and then adding them up to find the total CPU usage. It was doing fine. However to my surprise, I find that the... (2 Replies)
Hi,
I need a clarification.
Is there any difference between AIX box and Sun Solaris box?
The bzip command with -c option works in AIX box and the same does not work in Sun Solaris box.
Can anyone please explain if there is an implementation difference in both these boxes for the shell... (1 Reply)
Hi All ,
I would like to ftp whole folder ( which contains various sub folder and files ) from CD to AIX box.
Could you please guide me how I can do this?
Thanks in Advance

Quick backgound. We just moved the Datacenter. I attempted to boot one of our older AIX machines backup and it stops at a 518 Error code. Which is fine I need to run fsck on the volumes. The issue is I can't find the original media with the appropriate Date that was originally installed(previous... (1 Reply)
I have login into a server, and when i launch this command uname -L.
I can see there is a LPAR.
But is there anymore commands i can use to get more information on the LPAR ?
like it is VIO ?
wat the IP address ?
etc, etc.
please help. Thank you. (7 Replies)
Hi guys...
I have got a old Aix box i.e. 7043 - 150 for home experimenting purposes. I am having some issues to setup the tcpip on it correctly, so that i can access it within the network and also from outside i.e. work.
My setup looks like this:

cfgmgr_set_status
cfgmgr_set_status(9r)cfgmgr_set_status(9r)NAME
cfgmgr_set_status - General: Reports failure to the cfgmgr framework
SYNOPSIS
int cfgmgr_set_status(
char *driver_name );
ARGUMENTS
Specifies the name of the device driver for which you want to report an associated failure. This name is a string that matches the string
you specified for the entry_name item in the /etc/sysconfigtab database. Typically, third-party driver writers specify the driver name
(followed by a colon) in the sysconfigtab file fragment, which gets appended to the /etc/sysconfigtab database during the driver product
installation.
DESCRIPTION
The cfgmgr_set_status routine reports to the cfgmgr framework that a failure has occurred during static configuration. If the specified
device driver is in the static configuration state, it does not know that the configuration operation is complete until all register call-
back requests (routines) have successfully completed. Therefore, a device driver calls cfgmgr_set_status to report a possible failure dur-
ing static configuration to the cfgmgr framework.
Specifically, cfgmgr_set_status performs the following failure operations: Adjusts the state of the specified device driver Unconfigures
the specified device driver from the cfgmgr framework
The cfgmgr_set_status routine calls the device driver's configure routine at its CFG_OP_UNCONFIGURE entry point as part of these failure
operations. The code associated with the CFG_OP_UNCONFIGURE entry point is responsible for determining how to deallocate any allocated
resources during these failure operations.
The cfgmgr_set_status routine does not notify the operator of a configuration failure. Part of the code associated with the CFG_OP_UNCON-
FIGURE entry point could include an error logging operation to record the fact that a failure has occurred. The reason for doing this is
that the cfgmgr framework's task is to accomplish the unconfigure operation of a statically configured device driver.
You call the cfgmgr_set_status routine in the device driver's callback routine when the static configuration operation fails. You register
a callback routine by calling the register_callback routine.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, cfgmgr_set_status returns the value ESUCCESS. This success value indicates that cfgmgr_set_status adjusted the
state of the device driver and caused the cfgmgr framework to unconfigure the driver. Otherwise, cfgmgr_set_status returns one of the fol-
lowing error constants defined in /usr/sys/include/sys/sysconfig.h and /usr/sys/include/sys/errno.h: The device driver that you specified
in the driver_name argument does not exist. In this case, cfgmgr_set_status cannot adjust the state and unconfigure the device driver. The
device driver that you specified in the driver_name argument was not statically configured. The device driver that you specified in the
driver_name argument is not in the static configuration state.
EXAMPLES
See Writing Device Drivers: Tutorial for a code example of the cfgmgr_set_status interface.
