B = byte
b = bit
so what does MB mean ? megabyte or megabit ???
and what is Mb? Megabit ? Megabyte
Majority tends to say:
####################################
MB Megabyte
Mb Megabit
Mbps Megabit per seconds
Netzwerk 100Mb/sec <=> 12.5 MB/sec (=12.5 Megabytes/sec)
####################################
Bandwith measure in bits per second
------------------------------------
1Kb/s = 1000 bits per second
1Mb/s = 1'000'000 bits per second
Space measured in bytes and multipliers are power of 2
------------------------------------------------------
1KB = 1'024 bytes
1MB = 1'048'576 bytes
1GB = 1'073,741,824 bytes
####################################
always double check:
df -m will say MB and actually means Mbytes
fx> label/show/part states Megabytes
diskperf MB = Megabytes
ftp says Kbytes/s

PCI bus bandwidth:
------------------
33MHz, 64bit wide, 266 MB/s Theoretical bandwidth;
66MHz 532 MB/s Theoretical bandwidth;
Unfortunately, you're both incorrect. Due to the implementation of
the Origin's XIO-to-PCI Bridge/Xbridge chip(s), the (X)Bridge will
"disconnect" DMA on every cache-line boundary, which casues a certain
fraction of the PCI bandwidth to be unavailable. On the O2000 this leads
to the *theoretical* maximum on a 64-bit/33-Mhz bus being ~213 MB/s
(not 266), and we've actually seen ~211 MB/s in certain test cases.
The same applies to Xbridge, so the *theoretical* maximum through
Xbridge to/from a 64-bit/66-Mhz bus is ~426 MB/s (roughly), though
I don't know what the max we've actually ever seen is. (A vague
memory says ~380 MB/s with some SCSI controllers, but don't quote me.)

--------------
command ssmcli (storage processor command line interface) talks to the SP (storage
processor) in the Fibre Channel RAID ecnlosure. It communicates directly with the ssmagent.
ssmcli is an alternitive to the Raid GUI ssmgui.
ssmagent must be runnung - if no > ssmcli commands will fail
# chkconfig ssm on
# /etc/init.d/ssm start
add in .login (or even better .cshrc) the path to
set path = ($path /usr/ssm/bin /usr/ssm/lib)
or
add in .profile
PATH=$PATH:/usr/ssm/bin:/usr/ssm/lib
ssmcli can be used to get various info about the RAID and can also be used to bind/unbind
the disks.

add following lines to /.login (better .cshrc)
# complete path definition:
set path = ($path /usr/cluster/bin /usr/raid5)
raidgui graphical raid interface
raid5 linked to raidcli
# raid5 getagent
see which disk is bound to which lun:
# raid5 -d sc5d8l0 getdisk |grep Lun
or check all luns with
# raid5 -d sc5d8l0 getlun 0
get detailed info about disk A0:
# raid5 -d sc5d8l0 getdisk a0
Get the FRU info about disk:
# raid5 -d sc5d8l0 getfru c2
returns firmware (flare) revision and SP model number.
NOTE: model 7624 = SAUNA controller and model 7305 = PHOENIX controller.
# raid5 -d sc5d8l0 getsp
Which SP owns which lun ?
# scsifo -d

[ ] sc5d8l1 (170)
Group 11:
[ ] sc2d8l0 (62)
[P] sc5d8l0 (168)
assign a certain lun to a certain SP
Ex: assign lun1 to go over SCSI bus 5 (SPB)
# scsifo -s sc2d8l1
Which SCSI bus belongs to which SP:
# raid5 getagent |egrep 'Name|Node'
Name: xl-raid3-SPA
Node: sc2d8l0

Failover path:
If you try the command "scsifo -d", it should show you all pases to the
TP9400 Luns, with a p on the primary, the other pases is where the xlv
fails over to in case of a failure on the primary path.
For this to work you need to have the xlvplex software installed; but you
do not need the plexing license.
If you want to change the default selected pases, you need to enter a config
in /etc/failover.conf
_____________________________________________________________________________
/etc/failover.conf is only needed for JBOD, bandwidth solutions, and 3rd-party RAID
if using our RAID products the failover will happen automatically 240 seconds
after the 1st failed I/O request

lion nick root
be also aware that .rhosts is disregarded if it is owned by another user or if its
permissions allow anyone who is not the owner to modify the file.
--> chmod 600 .rhosts !!! this can fool you if you forget !!!

sticky bit (1000)
----------
chmod +t $HOME/tmp
ls -ld $HOME/tmp
drwxrwxrwt 3 nick user 118 Aug 3 10:34 /usr/people/nick/tmp
man chmod ....
If a directory is writable and the sticky bit, (t), is set on the
directory, a process may remove or rename files within that directory
only if one or more of the following is true (see unlink(2) and
rename(2)):
the effective user ID of the process is the same as that of the
owner ID of the file
the effective user ID of the process is the same as that of the
owner ID of the directory
the process is a superuser.
how to find these directories: find . -type d -perm 1000 -print
setuid-bit setgid-bit
----------------------
setuid (4000)
setgid (2000)
how to find these files:
find / -local \( -perm 2000 -o -perm 4000 \) -exec ls -l {} \;
_____________________________________________________________________________
ls -lh show size more human readable, specially for large files
ls -u Use time of last access instead of last modification
"file file.name " will change the access time of a file
(useful for mailchecking)

Backup utilities:
==================
move trees from source_dir to target_dir:
cd source_dir
tar -cvf - . | (cd tartget_dir; tar -xpvf - )
-p restores files to their original modes
ignoring present umask. Setuid and sticky information
are also restored
cd /source/dir
tar -cvpBf - ./backup_dir | rsh root@<remhost> "(cd /target; tar -xpBf -)"
Just restore some directories from a tar archive:
tar -xvf sgiadm.tar sgiadm/bin sgiadm/configs
Note that this will restore the directory sgiadm/bin and sgiadm/configs
from the archive; also NOTE that there is NO terminating '/',
so the command "tar -xvf sgiadm.tar sgiadm/bin/" would not work
it would just restore the empry dir sgiadm/bin/ but none of the directories
contents
xfsdump -l0 - /source_dir | xfsrestore - /target_dir
cp : new features for 1) Direct IO
2) realtime filesystems
cp -D
cp -tP -e ......
Also df can now show you the realtime usage
portion of the filesystem with the df -r flag
List_tape List content of a tape written by Backup(1), cpio(1),
tar(1), or bru(1)
dump / restore
dump 0Cu 2m /usr must include the C option followed by the size of the tape
for example 2m (2Mbytes) otherwise it is constantly asking
for another tape

dlook - a tool for showing memory and process placement
To show memory and thread placement for a program called a.out that
would normally be run by
% a.out < in > out
and place the resuls in a file called output one would simply
% dlook -out output a.out < in > out
-------------------------------------------------
bufview : file system buffer cache activity monitor
the tool works like top or osview

Acces control lists / Capabilities
----------------------------------
While this is documented in a Pipeline article
here is the list of the new commands.
attrinit - Set file attributes -> neat tool since
it can read a script file.
Take a look at the file /etc/irix.cap
you will be surprised.
chacl - change the access control list of a file or directory
use the ls -D to obtain the ACL
chlabel - change the label of a file
chcap - change file capability sets
use the ls -P to get the cap set
try ls -P /sbin YOU WILL be SURPRISED.

Applications have to be cpr-aware !!!! An application out of the box
will normally not work with cpr
Stop a process:
--------------
cd /var/tmp/cpr
cpr -c <statfile> -p <proc_id>
Ex: cpr -c ckpt05Feb2002 -p 53711
Restart it:
-----------
cpr [-j] -r ckpt05Feb2002
How to find out the PGID of the process named standard.x:
ps -efj |egrep 'PGID|standard.x'
cd /scratch/cpr; cpr -c ckpt05Feb2002 -p 537245:GID

man inst ...
If set to "rqsread", then only the first rqs phase will be
performed (the rqs registry file is updated).
But I don't know how to properly call rqsall(1) at a later time

remove for nsadmin, or just try:
/sbin/umount /ns;/usr/sbin/nsadmin remove ;/bin/rm /var/ns/cache/*
;/usr/sbin/nsadmin restart
The man page suggests that the removal of a single map is possible so I
would try this first.

Boot miniroot from disk:
------------------------
| Is it possible to boot miniroot from local disk?
To boot miniroot you need the files sa and unix.IPXX (and sash in vh).
EX: To boot miniroot from disk:
# mkdir /disk/miniroot
# cp /CDROM/sa /disk/miniroot
# mkdir /disk/miniroot/miniroot
# cp /CDROM/miniroot/unix.IPXX
Then you can boot miniroot from the prom menu
setting local directory /disk/miniroot

extract single files from inst package by installing to other root directory:
idea: install that product to another target (-r) and get it from that directory
PRB 200261
The PROM can be manually installed on systems not running
6.5.10+ by downloading one of the patch files (#4153 or #4154) and using the
following steps:
1. Install the patch in an alternate root tree.
% inst -a -r/var/tmp/patch -f<path to extracted patch files> \
-Vrulesoverride:on -Iall
NOTE: You will need to add '-mCPUBOARD=IP32' if you extract the
files on a system other than an O2 system.
2. Install flash image (you must be root to do this).
% su
# /sbin/flashinst -T -y -q \
/var/tmp/patch/usr/cpu/firmware/ip32prom.image
3. Clean up the extracted files.
# rm -rf /var/tmp/patch
----------------------------
extract file io6prom.img
Using IRIX 6.5.11 Overlays [2 of 3] 812-0819-011
# grep usr/cpu/firmware/io6prom.img /CDROM/dist/eoe_6511f.idb

# inst -f /CDROM/dist/eoe_6511f -Y usr/cpu/firmware/io6prom.img -m
CPUBOARD=IP27 -V rulesoverride:on -r /tmp -I default
; -r <target>; -Y <file> Install only file during installations
Default distribution to install from: /CDROM/dist/eoe_6511f
.... proceed with inst dialog
# ls -R /tmp
extract ip27prom code (the next is all one line..)
% inst -f /CDROM/dist/eoe_6511f -Y usr/cpu/firmware/ip27prom.img -m
CPUBOARD=IP27 -V rulesoverride:on -r /tmp -I default
-> When inst menu comes up type 'go'
-> When inst completes type 'quit'
% ls -R /tmp -> the prom image is in /tmp/usr/cpu/firmware
=================================================
other example how to if_eg.o from 6.5.14:
inst -U -r /var/tmp/removethis -f eoe_6514m -I eoe.sw.base -K '*'
will extract all files from eoe.sw.base to /var/tmp/removethis
-OR-
You can use showfiles:
cd /tmp
showfiles -f /CDROM_812-0818-014/dist/eoe_6514m -x
--usr/cpu/sysgen/IP27boot/if_eg.o
+ /tmp/if_eg.o
NOTE: To extract this file in IP27boot w/ showfiles, you have to be on a IP27 system.

Nice mechanisme to implement locking with hard links:
more than one processes should
o check if a lock is set by creating a hard link
touch ./L.$$ # touch a tempfile with the own proc id
# try to link lockfile to L.$$:
ln ./L.$$ lockfile
# if successfull go on, do your tasks and at the end remove the file "lockfile"
# as long as this link is set, nobody else should be able to create such a link
# if not successfull stay in your loop and try again after a while
Ex:
% touch L.1 L.2
% ln L.1 lockfile # successfully locked
% ln L.2 lockfile # lock will fail
May not unlink existing outplock - Error 0
% rm lockfile # release the lock
% ln L.2 lockfile # successfully locked

eurosign see bug 785417 (I never got it to work) and bug 785478
--------------...
Mail from Andy Heel:
"�" comes because your font does not support the euro symbol.
You need a iso8859-15 font (xlsfont | grep "iso8859-15" ),
and AFAIK you have to set LANG to your european Language.
(e.g. de_DE.ISO8859-15) (ls /usr/lib/locale/)
If you need more fonts install x_eoe.sw.Xoptfonts.
Use cat euro.bin (attached) to test this.
Andy
P.S.

Dual head:
I've been doing a little more investigation this morning and it looks like
the death grip interrupts the xdm parent process if you enter it on the
keyboard assigned to display 0. If you enter it on a different keyboard
that's assigned to another display, it interrupts only the child xdm
process that's assigned to that X display.
I also discovered that if I logout of X display 0's desktop, it also
terminates the other X display. I fixed this by changing the
DisplayManager._n.terminateServer: statement to False in the
/var/X11/xdm/xdm-config file.

/etc/default/login:
------------------
CONSOLE=/dev/console --> root connection is posible from console AND from xterm connections
CONSOLE=any_thing --> Nobody can connect as root directly. "su" must allways be used
CONSOLE=/dev/ttyd1 --> root connection is only posible from console in serial port 1. No xterm root
connections are posible.
see also man xdm
CONSOLE=noXlogin effectively prevents ANY�direct root-logins on the system.
Users must login with normal user names.
To gain root access users will have to use the su command.
with CONSOLE=/dev/ttyd1 you will be able to login as root on the "console serial port".

To match a socket to a process, the fuser(1M) command can be used. For
example, the command
fuser 25/tcp
will display information about any processes listening on TCP port 25.
Note that fuser requires the numeric value for the port, not the name of
the service. The -n option will force netstat to display service
information numerically.
route manually manipulate the routing tables
route add default <IP-addres_gateway> 1 ????????
Ex: route add -net <destination> <gateway>
route add -net 193.187.200 193.187.248.100
add it permanently to /etc/config/static-route.options
add default route to gateway 144.253.153.1:
route add -net default 144.253.153.1
route -n monitor # monitor any changes in the routing table
# normally nothing happens
# Very useful when we want to know through which interface we go
# when connecting to a remote system:

Formating
---------
tr translate characters
Ex: tr -d "[\200-\777]" < filename > filename2
delete all control characters in "filename"
cat xx | tr -s "[a-z]" "[A-Z]" (convert all lower to upper)
get rid of the ^M in a file (saved with Netscape)
cat -v file.txt | tr -d /^M/ > cleanfile.txt
or better: cat file.txt| tr -d '\015' > cleanfile.txt
do the same job in vi:
:g/^M/s///g (^M has to typed as '<ctrl><v><m>')
and another solution:
sed 's/^V^M//g' foo > foo.new
convert from Macintosh file to Unix Ascii (Mac files contain lots of ^M)
#Octal: \015 (^M CR Carriage Return) ; \012\ (^J LF Line Feed)
cat file.txt | tr -s "\015" "\012"
show each directory of PATH on seperate directory:
alias pa 'echo $PATH | tr -s "[:]" "\n"'
cut -d<delimiter> -f<field>
cut -d":" -f3 /etc/passwd print all UID's of /etc/passwd
cut -d":" -f3 /etc/passwd | sort -n | uniq
cut -d":" -f3,1 /etc/passwd also show the username
cut -c0-20 <file> print character 0 until 20 of each line in <file>
first character is 0
sed
Ex:
1.) /usr/etc/netstat -ia | grep 08:00 | sed 's/ *//;s/://g' | head -1 | tr '[a-f]' '[A-F]'
2.) nvram | grep eaddr | cut -d= -f2 | sed -e s/://g | tr '[a-f]' '[A-F]'
3.) sysinfo | grep -v System | sed 's/00//g' | sed 's/ //g;2s/^/0800/' | tr '[a-f]' '[A-F]'
paste merge same lines of several files or subsequent lines of one file
4.) replace in /etc/fstab the word vol_usr with vol_usr_plex:
sed 's/'vol_usr'/'vol_usr_plex'/g' /etc/fstab > /tmp/fstab.cloned
the serach patterns can also be replaced by variables:
sed 's/'$xlv_usr'/'$d3_xlv_usr[$nxlv]'/g' /etc/fstab > $tmpmnt/etc/fstab
same function can be implemented with perl see also UGU:
perl -p -i -e 's/original text string/replacementstring/g' <filename>
list perm, size and name:
ls -lt | tr -s " " | cut -d " " -f1,5,9
drwxrwxr-x 103 develop
-rw-rw-r-- 6639 examples.html
sed replace string:
sh:
VARIABLE=nick
echo "hallo world" | sed -e s/world/$VARIABLE/g
hallo nick
csh:
set VARIABLE = nick
echo "hallo world" | sed -e s/world/$VARIABLE/g
hallo nick

Trouble to remove a special file:
---------------------------------
ls -i list file by inode
clri clear inode (elete file by inode)
should only be used for efs filesystems
for xfs filesystems use xfs_check and xfs_repair(repeatedly)
Filesystem repair:
-----------------
xfs_check

# sar -f /var/adm/sa/sa01 What was the system activity at the first of this month ? only for root
# sar -d -f /var/adm/sa/sa21 -s 07:30 -e 09:30
show disk activity (-d) on 21st of this month between 07:30 and 09:30
Sar data is collected by crontab of user sys with script /usr/lib/sa/sa1 (every hour)
_____________________________________________________________________________
more about sar:
----------------
best to watch system for a certain period and save all data into a file
sar -A -o /var/tmp/sar.log 10 5
-A all options combined
10 delay of 10 seconds
5 take 5 samples
then look at all the details by reading from that log:
sar -U -f /var/tmp/sar.log # per CPU utilization, similar to -u
sar -D -f /var/tmp/sar.log # Disk
sar -w -f /var/tmp/sar.log # swap
more about top:
---------------
use the option '?' within top; Ex press 'o' and type 'res'
this will sort the processes by RES memory size
can also be achieved with command:
top -o res

cd /source/dir
find . -depth -print | cpio -ovBc -O /dev/tape
cd /source/dir
tar -cvBf - ./docu | rsh guest@burn "cd /space1/nick; tar -xpBf -"
how to find out WHICH file has a bad block on the disk
(cpio will terminate at read error !)
ksh:
find . -print | cpio -ovBc -O /dev/null > /var/tmp/log1 2>/var/tmp/err1
csh:
(find . -print | cpio -ovBc -O /dev/null > /var/tmp/log1 ) >& /var/tmp/err1
an then:
find . -print | tee /var/tmp/log2
last entry in /var/tmp/log1 is the name of the last file which is ok
so we have to look for the NEXT file in log2
xfsdum/xfsrestore:
xfsdump -f guest@ocracoke:/dev/tape -l 0 -L Backup_lion_nick -s nick /d2
means: -f <device>
-l <level>

To copy /usr/people/fred to the network host magnolia's /usr/tmp directory:
# xfsdump -J -s people/fred - /usr | rsh magnolia xfsrestore - /usr/tmp
This creates the directory /usr/tmp/people/fred on magnolia.
Note: The superuser account on the local system must be able to rsh to the remote system without a password. For more information, see hosts.equiv(4).
call xfsdump from within a script and restore from tape --> use -F
-F Inhibit interactive operator prompts
# xfsrestrore -F -f /dev/tape /tartget_file_system >&! /var/tmp/restorelog
Be aware that if there is already data on the tape written by xfsdump, another xfsdump
will append after the previous dumpprevious. If not desired use the option:
-o Overwrite the tape

Print from NT to Unix:
----------------------
Samba printing does not work as smooth as expected.
To print on SGI paper on the hp4050 do the following:
On NT:
o print document, but use 'print to file'
o save the file on UNIX
Now put in the desired paper in TRAY 1
on UNIX:
o lp -d hp4050_tray1 -o raw <your_filename>
Printing troubleshooting guide:
----------------------------------
I. Uninstall and then reinstall all of the print.sw stuff
II. Enable debug in the interface script, look in the directory
/var/spool/lp/interface, you should see files that are named the same as
any printers you created.
1. Edit the file in question. At the top of the file you will see
a line that looks like this:
#!/bin/sh
Change it to look like this:
#!/bin/sh -x
Save the change and exit the editor.
2. Try to print something short and simple:
cat <filename> |lp -d<printer_name>
cat /etc/hosts |lp -dsgiprinter
3. The debug output should end up in the /var/spool/lp/log file and
look like the script commands executed.
4. Print with the debug option 'verbose'
lptest >/tmp/testfile
lp -d<printer_name> -o"verbose" /tmp/testfile
III. Make sure you have the following subsystems install.
1. do a versions |grep impr_
output should show - impr_print.sw.laserjetPS, impr_base.man.impr,
impr_base.man.relnotes, impr_base.sw.impr, impr_base.books.Impr_UG,
impr_print.man.impr plus any others you may want to include.
2. Check out the Impressario release note for more info
(grelnotes impressario).
To test connection for a IP addressable printer check out the following:
IV. One test to try is telnet to the IP address and port number of the
printer.
Exp: telnet 128.120.27.14 9100 ( or 515 -std bsd port)
where 128.120.27.14 is the IP address and 9100/515 is the
port number. If that succeeds w/o error messages. You should
see something like:
$ telnet 150.166.144.35 9100 -OR- telnet 150.166.144.35 515
Trying 150.166.144.35...
Connected to 150.166.144.35.
Escape character is '^]'. # this indicates a
connection
^] # type 'Ctrl ]' to break the
connection
telnet> quit # then 'quit' to exit
Connection closed.
Check the printer documentation to make sure which network port the printer
is listening on. If necessary either change the configuration inside the
printer to conform, or modify /var/spool/lp/interface/<prtrname> to use a
port that matches the printer as in the following excerpt from one of the
networkable model files:
---
# Network port to write to. 9100 is HP Jetdirect card and EX.
# The JetDirect 3Plus EX uses 9100, 9101, and 9102 for ports 1, 2, and 3.
# Many other vendors use same port as HP. OUTSOCK is port to write to.
# INSOCK is socket to read for status (for future use -- status
# now read from same socket address as specified a by OUTSOCK).
OUTSOCK=9100
INSOCK=9100
The good general test is to take a file that should be printable by the printer,
ie: /usr/lib/print/data/testprint.ps for a postscript printer and
then: "cat /usr/lib/print/test.ps > /dev/plp". This will bypass all the printing
spooling stuff and blow the file right out the parallel port to the postscript
printer, and if the basic hardware is ok it should print it.

If anyone wants to use the GUI tools, there is yet another way.
I find this helpful to visually find a specific frame in the mpg file.
Open the file in moviemaker (open read only)
In moviemaker view as filmstrip
Find the frame you want to extract and click.
Copy this to the clipboard (edit->copy / right click on frame->copy)

How to resize your window to a certain size (xwsh):
echo "\033[203;3;80/y" # resize it to 3 lines 80 coloumns
echo "\033[203;80;100/y" # 80 lines 100 coloumns
more explained in detail:
>From the manual page xwsh
CSI Pv m
describes a sequence that begins with CSI ("control sequence introducer")
followed by zero or more semicolon separated numbers followed by the
character "m". ESC ("escape") expands to "\033". CSI expands to either
"ESC [" (escape left-bracket) or to "\233". DCS ("device control
string") expands to either "ESC P" (escape capital-P) or to "\220". ST
("string terminator") expands to either "ESC \\" (escape backslash) or to
"\234".
So the CSI is documented to be "ESC [". To resize the window:
CSI Pv / y xwsh command. The first parameter to this escape sequence
is the particular command described in the table that
follows. Each command has different numbers of arguments
which are described below.
203 Set the window size by row and column. This sequence takes
three parameters. The first is 203. The second parameter is
the number of rows to use. The third parameter is the number
of columns to use.
So to resize to 60 columns and 30 rows, you'd do
echo '^[[203;30;60/y'
Here '^[' is the rendition of the ASCII escape character. It depends a bit
on your shell how you can access it. Control-V ESC is a good bet with many
shells.

change the iconname of the a window:

script from my .cshrc which changes the title of my xwsh to
what ever directory I'm in:
========
if ($?TERM) then

Here's another script that is a bit more general; supports both xterm
and winterm
#!/bin/sh
# usage: title "text here in $1"
## for xterms:
#ESC ] Ps ; Pt BEL
#
#Ps = 0 -> Change Icon Name and Window Title to Pt
#Ps = 1 -> Change Icon Name to Pt
#Ps = 2 -> Change Window Title to Pt
#Ps = 46 -> Change Log File to Pt (now normally disabled by a
# compile-time option although not the case in the past; it's
# a security hole that allows people to overwrite arbitrary
# files accessible to the person running xterm)
#Ps = 50 -> Set Font to Pt
#
## echo "\033]2;This is the new title\007"
## \033 = ^[
## \007 = ^G
case $TERM in
xterm|xterms)
echo -n "\033]2;$1\007"

echo "unknown term type $TERM"

------------------------------------
Below is my little perlscript that runs after every cd command I issue:
I call it 'wintitle' and keep it in my ~/bin directory
Mind the escape characters.. This is all extracted from the manpage of xwsh
This is how I set it up in my .cshrc file (based on csh, but it also
works great in tcsh, which is my now-favorite)
if ( $?prompt) then
alias cd 'set old=$cwd; chdir \!*; setprompt; wintitle ${host}:$cwd'
#setprompt alias here...
...
endif
Good luck
Hendrik

Vacation message setup (from Peter's help page)
-----------------------------------------------
Traveling & Vacation Messages This tutorial tells you how to set up vacation
messaging for your email. This way when people send you email and you are out
of town they will get a message to that effect.
1. In your home directory create a file .vacation.msg that has your vac. mesg.
with:
From: ...
Subject: I'm on vacation
Precedence: bulk
2. In your home directory create a file .forward containing the following line:
\username, "|/usr/sbin/vacation username"
Note: replace username in the above example with your login name
3. To activate this message, in a shell window type:
vacation -i -r 1
(this is the number "1" for 1 message per day)
4.To deactivate, when you return, move .forward to another location to save it
mv .forward .forward.save
5. To reactivate (next trip) edit .vacation.msg and move the .forward file back
mv .forward.save .forward
6. To test, send yourself an email and see if the vacation program replies correctly
7. For more information, read the man page on vacation
How to add logging for certain mail aliases
--------------------------------------------
add the alias in /etc/aliases (/etc/aliases.yp)
# grep "^support^ /etc/aliases.yp
support:michi, "|/usr/local/bin/savesupport"
# cat /usr/local/bin/savesupport
#!/bin/csh -f
cat >> /usr/local/savemail/support
exit
# ls -l /usr/local/savemail/support
-rw-r--r-- 1 guest guest ..... # should belong to guest
# under 6.2 it did not work otherwise
How to redirect Mail to null ?
------------------------------
in /etc/aliases (or /etc/aliases.yp for NIS)
keak: /dev/null
dont forget to issue 'newaliases' afterwards !!
How to send mail to more than one person:
-----------------------------------------

O2 uppgrade to 5200 CPUs
------------------------
Upgrade prom before replacing the CPU!
Remember diskcloning newer flashes the proms.
Check Prom version:
On booted system use:
strings /usr/cpu/firmware/ip32prom.image | grep VERSION
(must be 4.12 or higher, this image is copied when cloning)
This checks the version of the PROM image at:
/usr/cpu/firmware/ip32prom.image
If incorrect Run following command:
/sbin/flashinst -T -y /usr/cpu/firmware/ip32prom.image
If system will not boot, you will have to swap the customers old
CPU back onto Systemboard. Then boot the system up and do the above command.
If customer does not have the Old CPU, try replacing the Systemboard.
Newer Systemboards are supposed to be using Prom Version: 4.11 or
higher and this should let you at least get to miniroot.
