Make sure this one is stopped with
Code:
stopsrc -s dhcpcd

Here is what it does:
pSeries and AIX Information Center

So this one could be the reason. It is is inoperative on all our servers.

To not start it at boot, check your /etc/rc.tcpip:
Quote:
...
# Start up dhcpcd daemon
#start /usr/sbin/dhcpcd "$src_running"
dhcpcd_IF_check $src_running
...
The bold line could be uncommented in your case. If that's the case, comment it. Stop it and reboot the box when you get a chance to see if it worked. Else just stop the dhcpcd and wait if it's still changing the IP address.
