i think everyone's situation is differernt... but if you were to ask me... then...

1. i don't think an upgrade will necessarily be THAT costly considering it's a mission critical system. you...

would there be a problem with removing the user and re-adding with the new name but with original UID?

try:

sar -mu -P ALL <interval> <number of samples>

environment variable not set? *shrugs*

is AIO turned on? don't know if it needs to be, though. also don't recall if it requires a reboot if you change the setting... i THINK in AIX 5 you won't...

i think with bash... it's just the up and down arrow keys to scroll through past commands.

the 'ls' command fails with the same error too???? that's pretty bizarre. i would go with hegemaro's suggestion of generating a file list.

yeah... everytime there's a X/desktop issue, 9 out of 10 times, at least for me, it's network related.

as andryk says, the mktcpip may be a good place to start.

if you DO reinstall as a last...

mksysb will work well... especially if it's only a single VG (rootvg).

on your local system, mount your dcrom drive. you can do this like how user "mercy" stated... "mount /dev/cd0 /cdrom"

i'm assuming your cdrom on your AIX system is cd0.... and chances are it is....

if it's a power5 then i'd assume that the CPUs are dual core... but it's not like windows systems where a dual core processor will be viewed as two processors to the OS.

i don't know oracle's...

for the most part, i do not believe you can execute commands remotely without some sort of login ID. if it were possible, that coule be a SERIOUS problem... especially if you have disgrutled...

what kind of error messages are you getting with the chvg command?

the VG is varied off when you try, right?

...or how about...

nohup ./my_program >/dev/null 2>error.log &

that is, if you don't care about standard output... but just wanna see stderr messages.

if you intend to do this a lot... or...

have you tried the "who" command? i think that should give you a list of who's logged in and from where. if you need a history of logged in users, that information is carried in /var/adm/wtmp.
...

hahahhaa... i hear ya, bud. the problem nowadays is that from the perspective of "sizing", you're at the mercy of your application vendor. :)

yeah... i'm tending to think the same.

do you absolutely need to run CDE on your console? if not, you may want to try and run 'dtconfig -d'. this disables the desktop.

i would guess that page-ins WOULD be a memory shortage.... because eventually that would result in page-outs.

the way i learned it (a long time ago), the general rule is use 2x paging space up to...

try getting rid of the first '&'.

where do you see this error?

does it stall for a long time?

exactly what doesn't work right now? people can't start a desktop from their PC? the desktop won't start on the console?

it hard...

with the original jfs, i think there was a limit of how many "PP"s you can have per physical volume... or something like that. with jfs2, i don't think there's limit that anyone would realistically...

my only guess would be that if you suspect a service from inetd to be causing problems, you may consider turning everything back "on" and turning off one service at a time to try and eliminate which...

i agree. my impression would be that you would probably want to backup and rebuild for performance reasons. as for backups... you probably should already be doing that anyways. :)

are you talking about being able to do remote desktpo to windows servers FROM your aix server? if so, i used to use a program called "rdesktop" that was capable of doing so.

if you're asking what i THINK you're asking...

argument1 will be represented as variable $1 and argument2 will be represented as variable $2 inside the script.

the 'time sleep 20' line doesn't make sense to use. it's only timing the sleep command which you know will execute for only 20 seconds. er... apparently 20.02 seconds. :D

maybe you can wrap a...
