To dump installtion CD's on AIX machine

Hi ,
I want to dump the CD's for installation purpose on AIX 5.3
Please tell me the command to be used.
Thanks in advance

Usually in 5.3 the CDROM should already be setup to be mounted and you can simply do a 'mount /cdrom'.
If this is not the case then do the following:
Edit /etc/filesystems and add:
/cdrom:
        dev             = /dev/cd0
        vfs             = cdrfs
        mount           = false
        options         = ro
        account         = false
Make sure the directory /cdrom exists and then you will be able to do a 'mount /cdrom' each time you want to use the cdrom without having to remember any commands. Then copy the cd's to a directory of your choosing.
Another easier way would be to use a program like [Winscp|http://winscp.net], mount the CD's in Windows and then simply copy the data to your home directory using Winscp.

Having trouble finding command prompt on AIX machine

I've successfully set up the server stats monitor to collect stats from iostat, vmstat etc. on a solaris box, but I'm having trouble getting the same information from an AIX machine using ssh.
-- I'm able to plink and login successfully to the aix machine
-- I've added the rsa2 key fingerprint to the registry of the windows machine where eload is installed.
Here's the top of the error message:
"Monitor configuration failure alert: monitor id=<ip address>:ds_ConsoleEngine_<ip address>_null_4.16 alert=<ip address>:ds_ConsoleEngine_<ip address>_null_4.16
(message id=console.configFailureAlert): Error returning value: host key fingerprint is....
<snip>
When I scan the rest of the error message, I can see that I was successfully logged in. I have a feeling that the command prompt wasn't found.
Any suggestions?
thanks.

Some additional info...
If I open a windows command prompt and use plink to login to the servers, this is what I get on solaris:
C:\Empirix\e-LoadDataCollector\bin>plink -ssh userid@solarismachine
returns a command prompt that looks like:
←]0;userid@solarismachine:~←[m←[m←[m←[Uuserid@solarismachine:~#> ←[K
The AIX box returns the following as the command prompt:
←]0;userid@aixmachine:~←[m←(B←[m←[m ←[Uuserid@aixmachine:~#> ←[K
I specified ~#> as the command prompt in eLoad.

Steps to create a SOLMAN key for NW2004s installation in AIX Machine

I have installed a SOLMAN in a Windows system
I need to install SAP NW200s in a AIX Machine.
Pls let me know the steps to create SOLMAN key for the installation.

Hi Balaji,
Before doing the steps said by Kanthi, you have register that system. Please follow the steps to do:
SMSY>Server>Create new system with assistant
Here you have to specify the details like System ID, Instance number etc.,
Then follow the steps:
System Landscape>other object>Specify the System ID(Which you have registered as i said in the provious step)-->select the generate key icon.
Hope it is helpful for you!!

Linking Issue on AIX Machine

Hi All,
I am porting C code from LINUX to AIX Machine. I am using a xlc compiler to compile my C code. I was successfully able to compile the code and generate 64 bit XCOFF format object modules.
But, i am stuck one liking issue which i am unable to resolve.
The error message thrown by the linker is like this
ld: 0711-715 ERROR: File /ade/aime_aixtesting/oracle/lib/stubs/libdl.so cannot be processed.
The file must be an object file, an import file, or an archive.
gmake: *** [ade/aime_aixtesting/pfcore/addev/bin/adpatchnew] Error 8
When i run "file" command on the file libdl.so i get
../oracle/lib/stubs/libdl.so: ELF 32-bit LSB version 1 shared obj 80386
The RDBMS Lable from which this libdl.so is picked is
/ade_autofs/ade_release_unix/RDBMS_11.1.0_AIX.PPC64.rdd/RELEASE_11.1.0.7.0
Surpirsingly, this label which is meant for AIX, contains Shared objects with ELF format instead of XCOFF.
Can AIX understand ELF Format ? any inputs will be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

Hi!
I suppose you will find an answer to your question at AIX forums instead Oracle forum. Only a Linux C programmer can solve this.

Oracle client for an AIX machine

I need the client oracle 9.2.0.1 for an AIX machine.
But in the download page I don't see any link for the oracle client. There is only this
link:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oracle9i/htdocs/aixsoft.html
Thera are 4 different download:
server_9201_AIX64_Disk1.cpio.gz (523,867,845 bytes)
server_9201_AIX64_Disk2.cpio.gz (629,432,127 bytes)
server_9201_AIX64_Disk3.cpio.gz (620,873,250 bytes)
server_9201_AIX64_Disk4.cpio.gz (221,310,704 bytes)
Is the client there?

Oracle doesn't offer the client as a separate download.
You need to download all 4 files (can not help it),
fire up the installer, and choose a Client install.

Can anyone help me with this..please?
-Mainak Biswas

hello,
When I upgrade the mars to 4.3.1. I've noticed that the mars doesn't received any logs from IPS,ASA and other reporting device. But when I check ASA and IPS, i'm pretty sure that the ASA and IPS were sending syslogs alerts to mars the only problem is the mars could not receive. I can ping the IPS / ASA in the mars console but failed when i test the connectivity/discover in Web Interface.
I also execute the pnstart and pnstatus command in the CLI console.
This is what i get:
[pnadmin]$ pnstart
[pnadmin]$ pnstatus
Configuration error: host name does not match janus.conf::janusBoxName.
Please contact Cisco for support.
[pnadmin]$
Any ideas about this?...

Aix machine connectivity from frontend machines

hi
can any one tell me how can i connect aix machines drom a desktop which has got windows xp like how we connect using " mstsc " command of windows.
i mean how can i access complete aix machine using my normal desktop?
thanks
akhil

Hello Akhil,
You can use Telnet or SSH.
Should be a administrative user to access the system's complete resources.
If In case you are creating a user then he should be a administrative user with telnet and SSH autentication.
Thanks & Regards

Thanks everyone for the response and help.
I completed the task yesterday with the permission method. However, I think I found the solution after completion. The trick lies at the oraInst.loc file. It lies at /etc directory for my case (AIX 5.3).
If you do a opatch lsinventory, it shows you the Central Inventory location and the location of orainst.loc. For my case, it is pointing to /oracle/DE1/920_64/inventory. Therefore, even though I am logging in as oraqa1 with all env and oracle settings correct, it still points to DE1 inventory.
I think modifying the Central inventory location in oraInst.loc will solve this problem.

Issue with Teradata access from Business Objects AIX Machine

Hi,
I am using BO XI.31 which is installed on AIX 5.3 machine. I have installed Teradata driver on the machine and I have created the require ODBC.ini entry to point Teradata database. While refreshing the report I am getting below error message.
A database error occured .The database error test is (CS) "DBDriver failed ot load: /BOBJ/xi_3.1...Connectionserver/libdbd_tdodbc.so
0509-022 Cannot load module/BOBJ/xi_3.1....ConnectionServer/libdbd_tdodbc.so
0509-150 Dependent module libodbc.a(odbc.so) Could not be loaded.
0509-022 Cannot load module libodbc.a(odbc.so)
0509-022 System error:A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
Any body know what are the steps require to access teradata database from AIX box

Hi Jacks,
Following information might help you to resolve the issue.
This is caused by a wrong HOME environment variable of the user that starts the BO processes.
Resolution
Check the correct path of your BO 3.1 installation and export it as HOME environment variable:
Example:
BO 3.1 installation path: /home/<bouser>/bo3.1/Enterprise12.0../...
Type in the command line:
export HOME=/home/<bouser>/boversion
You can also change this environment variable permanently if you edit the .profile file of the BO user (home/<username>/.profile), adding the above line into the file, then source it again with:
. .profile
or with a logoff/logon of the session.
Check if the path of your HOME is correct with:
env | grep HOME
Now you can run the installation setup without any error.
