Discovery Tools.
Hi Folks,
realise that this forum might not be the exact match for this question, so feel free to put it somewhere more apropriate.
I'm currently involved in a project that has gone somewhat pear shaped, just to keep this all short the situation is as follows. I was brought in to manage a migration project, now I'm running the Unix estate - without any local knowledge to fall back on. I have sufficient unix knowledge and can call on windows resource if required, but do have to work within some constraints relating to security.
So the help I'm looking for is a pointer to a discovery tool that will allow me to carry out a full network discovery, on what's up on the network and what it's got open. Any assistance would be appreciated, especially when it comes to tools that will give me an output that I can present to the users - for this crowd "Pictures would be good"!
Regards
Dave

I am trying to make a bash script to scan subnets to see what hosts are available. Is it correct that you can not make the ping command time out less than a second? The script below works, but can take up to 255 seconds which is a bit long :( Is there a way to solve this using bash only?

Hi All,
i would like to know if it's possible to know all the IP Addresses of all LPAR's interfaces from HMC (without connect into LPAR).
And if i can know also the "Application" hostname of LPAR from HMC.
Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
i must add a new disk on a LPAR.
I've done all the HMC and VIOS Procedure to create a virtual host with disk and assign it to lpar.
I don't remember how i must do on the lpar to see this disk. (i use lvm not veritas).
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.
Bye

diff3(1) General Commands Manual diff3(1)
NAME
diff3 - Compares three files
SYNOPSIS
diff3 [-e | -x | -E | -X | -3] file1 file2 file3
The diff3 command reads three versions of a file and writes to standard output the ranges of text that differ.
OPTIONS
Creates an edit script for use with the ed command to incorporate into file1 all changes between file2 and file3 (that is, the changes that
normally would be flagged ==== and ====3). Produces an edit script to incorporate only changes flagged ====. These are similar to -e and
-x, respectively, but treat overlapping changes (that is, changes that are flagged ==== in the normal listing) differently. The overlap-
ping lines from both files are inserted by the edit script, bracketed by <<<<<< and >>>>>> lines. The -E option is used by RCS merge to
ensure that overlapping changes in the merged files are preserved and brought to someone's attention. Produces an edit script to incorpo-
rate only changes flagged ====3.
DESCRIPTION
The diff3 command reads three versions of a file and writes to standard output the ranges of text that differ, flagged with the following
codes: All three files differ. file1 differs. file2 differs. file3 differs.
The type of change needed to convert a given range of a given file to match another file is indicated in one of these two ways in the out-
put: Text is to be added after line number number1 in file, where file is 1, 2, or 3. Text in the range line number1 to line number2 is to
be changed. If number1 = number2, the range may be abbreviated to number1.
The original contents of the range follow immediately after a c indication. When the contents of two files are identical, diff3 does not
show the contents of the lower-numbered file, although it shows the location of the identical lines for each.
NOTES
Editing scripts produced by the -e option cannot create lines consisting only of a single . (dot).
EXAMPLES
To list the differences among three files, enter: diff3 fruit.a fruit.b fruit.c
fruit.a, fruit.b, and fruit.c contain the following data:
fruit.a:
banana grape kiwi lemon mango orange peach pare
fruit.b:
apple banana grapefruit kiwi orange peach pear
fruit.c:
grape grapefruit kiwi lemon mango orange peach pear
The output from diff3 shows the differences between these files as follows. (The comments on the right do not appear in the output.)
==== All three files are different. 1:1,2c - Lines 1 and 2 of the first file, fruit.a
banana
grape 2:1,3c - Lines 1 through 3 of fruit.b
apple
banana
grapefruit 3:1,2c - Lines 1 and 2 of fruit.c
grape
grapefruit ====2 The second file, fruit.b, is different. 1:4,5c - Lines 4 and 5 are the same in fruit.a and fruit.c. 2:4a
3:4,5c - To make fruit.b look the same, add text after line 4.
lemon
mango ====1 The first file, fruit.a, is different. 1:8c
pare 2:7c - Line 7 of fruit.b and line 8 of fruit.c are the same. 3:8c
pear
