Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Unable to install client AIX LPAR to vscsi hdisk provided from VIOS Post 303034320 by rbatte1 on Tuesday 23rd of April 2019 09:21:35 AM

Okay, so I'm a bit rusty. It's been a few years.
  • On the VIOS, did you define logical volumes to pass to the LPARs to use, or have you just tried to pass them the whole disk? You should be able to create an LV (and mirror) and then define that as a virtual device passed to the LPAR and install to that.
  • When you get the SMS up on the LPAR, can you find the disks defined/available for you to install to? Do you get enough of a serial number/id to be sure which you are targetting?




Kind regards,
Robin

NAME
pk-debuginfo-install - Debugging Packages Installer SYNOPSIS
pk-debuginfo-install [--help] [--verbose] [--simulate] [--no-depends] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the pk-debuginfo-install command. pk-debuginfo-install is the command line client for installing debuginfo packages. WHY DO I NEED DEBUGINFO PACKAGES
? When a program crashes, it's often useful to send the developer a backtrace which contains symbol names and variable contents, rather than memory addresses. To make this possible, extra packages called debug packages can be installed. OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. --help Show summary of options. --noninteractive Do not be interactive and skip the confirmation before the packages are installed. --verbose Show extra debugging information. --simulate Don't actually install any packages, only simulate what would be installed. --no-depends Do not scan for, or install dependencies of the core packages. --quiet Do not display information or progress to the terminal. RETURN VALUES
0 Success, at least one package was installed 1 Failed with miscellaneous internal error. 3 Failed to get software sources list. 4 Failed to enable software sources. 5 Failed as nothing to do. 6 Failed to find dependant packages. 7 Failed to install. 8 Failed to disable software sources. SEE ALSO
