Per vedere il PID di una virtual machine :

ps auxfww | more

tra tutti i processi comparira’ :

root 4324 0.0 0.3 2016 876 ? S< 10:28 0:00 /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmkload_app /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-vmx -ssched.group=host/us
er -# name=VMware ESX Server;version=3.5.0;licensename=VMware ESX Server;licenseversion=2.0 build-130756; -@ pipe=/tmp/vmhsdaemon-0/vmxbdb66235bf16
33a8; /vmfs/volumes/4974a1ec-69f22859-b5a7-00215e53b590/WINEPTS5-xxxx/WINEPTS5-xxxx.vmx

Il 4324 e’ relativo al server winepts4 …..

Ho trovato un host esx VMWARE scollegato dal Virtual Center a causa del filesystem / pieno.
La causa era dovuta alla directory /var/core piena di file xxxx.core
Per cui con il comando file xxxx.core ho controllato quale programma mi generava il file core :

[root@albert core]# file 1809.core
1809.core: ELF 32-bit LSB core file Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), SVR4-style, from ‘vmware-hostd’

Ho eliminato tutti i file core recuperando piu’ di 2 GB di spazio.

For stop start or restart :

Usage: /etc/init.d/raid_agent {start|stop|restart}

Go to your ESX console and edit this file /etc/sysconfig/keyboard
KEYBOARDTYPE=”pc”
KEYTABLE=”us″

and change only the second line
KEYTABLE=”it”

Il servizio che permette la connessione con il virtual center e ‘

vmware-vpxa

quindi una delle prove da fare se un host vmware non si collega con il virtual center
e’ quella di riavviare il servizio :

service vmware-vpxa restart

Change or delate user from smitty or with mkuser over AIX 5.3 :

3004-698 Error committing changes to test: value is invalid

The problem is :

There was a missing/invalid entry in the /etc/passwd file

/usr/bin/rsh backup10 -v dir
Unable to execute the command

you need to login as “root” on the Windows box, run rshpswd
and type in root’s current, valid password.

For determine the paging space :

lsps -a

For incrase :

chps -s 3 hd6

For reduce:

chps -d 3 hd6

3 is the logical partitions

When start smitty from console AIX server :

The environment variable TERM is currently set to a terminal type that does
not support the full screen display capabilities required for SMIT.
Set TERM to an appropriate terminal type or use another terminal.

I need :

export TERM=vt100
smitty
