Operating Systems AIX How to convert a partition usin 64 bits kernel to 32 bits kernel? Post 97409 by bakunin on Monday 30th of January 2006 04:47:50 AM

There is a link in the root directory called /unix. It points to the kernel you are using (in case of a 64-bit-kernel this is /usr/lib/boot/unix_64). Remove the link and create a new one to the kernel of your liking, then reboot.

You may have to install the 32-bit-kernel images first, check with "lslpp -l bos.mp*" and "lslpp -l bos.up*" (mp=multiprocessor, up=uniprocessor kernels) which kernels are installed.

Changing 24 bits to 8 bits display

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to change 24 bits depth display to 8 bits depth display for Sun Ultra1, running Solaris 8? THANKS in advance. I think that the command is ffbconfig, but it has nothing about depth. (4 Replies)

max number of slabs per kernel module (kernel 2.6.17, suse)

Hi All, Is there a max number of slabs that can be used per kernel module? I'm having a tough time finding out that kind of information, but the array 'node_zonelists' (mmzone.h) has a size of 5. I just want to avoid buffer overruns and other bad stuff. Cheers, Brendan (4 Replies)

cfg_unconfigure(9r)													       cfg_unconfigure(9r)

NAME
cfg_unconfigure - General: Unconfigures a kernel subsystem SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/sysconfig.h> ); cfg_status_t cfg_unconfigure( char *subsys ); ARGUMENTS
Specifies the name of the subsystem to be unconfigured. DESCRIPTION
The cfg_unconfigure kernel routine is used to unconfigure a subsystem. If the subsystem is not configured into the kernel, this routine returns an error. If subsystem is sucessfully unconfigured, the state of the driver is marked as unconfigured. An attempt is also made to unload the subsystem's module from the kernel. A dynamically loadable kernel subsystem is subject to be unloaded. RETURN VALUES
This routine returns 32 bit status values composed of subsystem status and framework status segments. The upper 16 bits is the subsystem status (CFG_STATUS_SUBSYS) and the lower 16 bits is the frame status (CFG_STATUS_FRAME). The return values are organized as follows: [Upper subsystem 16 bits][Lower framework 16 bits] The subsystem status is returned by the subsystem's configure routine and can be any error in errno.h. The framework status is returned by the configuration framework and the possible values are defined in <sys/sysconfig.h> as CFG_FRAME_Exxx. A successful operation has ESUCCESS(0) returned in both status segments. See the cfg_errno(9r) and errno(2) reference pages for more details about error numbers and status. EXAMPLE
A subsystem may be unconfigured using the cfg_unconfigure kernel routine as follows: status = cfg_unconfigure(subsystem_name); SEE ALSO
Routines: cfg_subsys_unconfig(3), cfg_configure(9r), cfg_errno(9r), cfg_query(9r), cfg_reconfigure(9r), cfg_subsysop(9r), Other: errno(2), cfg_unconfigure(9r)
