Hi,

Can someone tell me what the difference is between ps -ef and ps aux. I was under the assumption that both commands would list ALL processes currently running on the system.

But on my...

What is the following output telling me?

Can it be that the tapes was still working on a previous job. Sometimes it helps to wait some minutes before you issue the next tape command.

Also check if there's not another process holding the...

Hi All,

I'm having trouble with my SAN devices on AIX 5.3 so I would like to remove the SAN devices and HBAs. Then I want to recreate them with cfgmgr and see if this solves my problem.

So I...

The Server SCSI adapter was a typo in this post. It was correct on the server.

After running

cfgdev
the new LPAR does show up in the lsmap output. Thanks.

I'm sure there has to be another way. I say this because someone else created a LPAR on this system without rebooting the VIO server.

Due to circumstances I cannot ask this person how he managed...

How do I active the new VIO profile? I was under the assumption that the DLPAR from step 3 would do this.

Can I active the new VIO profile without rebooting the VIO server? I have only one VIO...

Hi All,

I've been trying to create a new LPAR for some days now but I can't get the VIO server to recognize the new LPAR. This is what I did:



On HMC create new LPAR

fget_config -Av does not show any output.

Isn't lspath the successor of fget_config in AIX 6?

fget_config -Av does not return any output. I'm running AIX6 and my understanding is that the MPIO drivers are part of the base OS in AIX 6.

I tried smitty mpio but I still see a number of failed paths.

On my VIo I see the following for my disks:

Just curious. Why can't you use bc?

Hello,

I encounter some performance issues on my AIX 5.3 server running in a LPAR on a P520. How do I investigate performance issues in AIX. Is there any kind of procedure that takes me to the...

It depends on the disk label whether s2 represents the whole disk depends or not.

SMI Label : s2 represents whole disk
EFI label : s2 is just another slice available for data

As a side note: ...

You can not really clear slice 5. Slice 5 is just a region on the disk starting at 36640 and ending at 40510.

It depends on what you want to do with slice 5.

I have a number of LPARs on one P520. All LPARs are running 5.3 and I observe the following:

On some LPARs the number of CPUs found do not match between topas and mpstat.

Thanks for the warning.

/backup is 800GB so I hope not to touch the 16TB soon :-)

Thanks Zaxxon,

Right on the spot. Changed it to unlimited and the backup runs fine.
