Firstly I must say that I don't have an AIX 7 server. The CDE is controlled by the dtlogin daemon. The command to run is:-
It is usual to have a script in /etc/rc.d/rc2.d called S99dtlogin or similar to do this for you when the server boots. Note the capital S marks this be run with a parameter start during the boot.
This might be in rc3.d if your run-level is 3. Check this by looking at /etc/inittab
Separately, have a look at this for an IBM AIX root password resetYou should get a list of useful sites and even a you-tube video walking you through the process. For this reason you must keep your console (physical serial console, serial console server or HMC managed) very secure.

Is it also possible to start the... (4 Replies)
I did a fresh install of AIX 5.3 on my p275. I can now boot the system from the disk and login as root, but only from the directly attached graphics console (keyboard+LCD monitor).

volinstall
volinstall(8) System Manager's Manual volinstall(8)NAME
volinstall - Sets up Logical Storage Manager (LSM) environment after LSM installation
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/volinstall
DESCRIPTION
The volinstall script sets up LSM special device files, and add the following lines to the /etc/inittab file:
lsmr:s:sysinit:/sbin/lsmbstartup -b </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1 lsm:23:wait:/sbin/lsmbstartup -n </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1
vol:23:wait:/sbin/volreconfig -n </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1
The first line calls the /sbin/lsmbstartup script, which enables LSM to start automatically on system reboot. The second line calls the
/sbin/volreconfig script, which handles any pending encapsulation requests.
If /sbin/lsmbstartup is not added to the /etc/inittab file, LSM must be started manually after system reboot.
Note
The volinstall script is automatically invoked by the volsetup, clu_create, and clu_add_member commands. Therefore, running the volinstall
script to set up LSM is usually not necessary.
