Problem with "swreg" or "swacl" on hpux 11.23
This is an unfortunate message in that the real reason is that either hostname or
IP address has changed recently. Restart swagentd:

/sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
/sbin/init.d/swagentd start

The swagentd program keeps networking information in its local memory after
starting.

/dev/vg03/lvmd_tmp 8880128 4159 8321266 0% /md_tmp
mounted on /dev/vg03/lvmd_tmp

run vgdisplay -v vg03

then look for the available PE
lvextend -l (available PE or size in Gb or Mb) /dev/vg03/lvname
Then unmount the FS
EX:
umount /dev/vg03/lvname

Then extend lvname

EX:

UNAME EXPLAINED:

In the example above, the system returned the following information:

HP-UX - Operating system name

tavi - System name
B.11.31 - Operating system release identifier
A - Operating system version identifier
9000/800 - Machine and model numbers
1290005321 - Machine identification number
two-user license - Operating system license level

CRON JOBS

crontab -e - Edits the current crontab, or creates a new one.

crontab -l - Lists the contents of the crontab file.
crontab -r - Removes the crontab file.
crontab -u - Edits user's crontab.

CRON EXPLAINED:
0 12 * * * tar cv /work /home >/tarlog 2>&1

this example takes a tar backup of /work and /home every day at noon.

Here�s how this works (the letters under the first five fields of the example are
keyed to the explanations that follow):

0 12 * * * tar cv /work /home 1>/tarlog 2>&1A B C D E

A = minute
B = hour
 C = day of the month
D = month of the year
E = day of the week (0 = Sunday)

An asterisk (*) means all legal values, so the asterisks in fields C, D, and
E mean do it every day of the year.
Note that standard output and standard error are redirected to /tarlog.

COMMAND TO STOP/START NFS SERVICE IN HP UX

/sbin/init.d/nfs.server stop
/sbin/init.d/nfs.server start

Check your /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf on the client and see what START_MOUNTD is set
to.

If it is '0' then you need to make it '1'.

START_MOUNTD=1

"cd /sbin/init.d"
"./nfs.client stop"
"./nfs.server stop"
"./nfs.core stop"
"./Rpcd stop"

Then do these commands again, in reverse order, changing "stop" to "start"

COMMAND TO CREATE A LINK IN HP UX

vi /etc/X11/fs/config
Set the following variable: "RUN_X_FONT_SERVER=0"
COMMAND TO START IT:
EXECUTE: /sbin/init.d/xfs start

TO DISABLE FTP:
You can disable ftp and telnet comment the line in /etc/inetd.conf file. simply put
# at the beggining of ftp.
When I upload file with ftp client to HP-UX, default right is used (u=rw, g=r,
o=nothing)How can I change rights for specified user?
ANS:
You can change the umask for ftp system wide only in

# vi /etc/inetd.conf
change default value

ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/ftpd ftpd -l

ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/ftpd ftpd -l -u002

Disabling sendmail on HP-UX

In HP-UX, services are either enabled or disabled based on scripts that are located
in the /etc/rc.config.d directory. These scripts set environment variables that
tell the O/S which services should be started during system startup.

For sendmail, the script that is of concern in HP-UX is:

d
/etc/rc.config.d/mailservs

To disable the sendmail service, you need to edit this file and change the line
that says

export SENDMAIL_SERVER=1

to

export SENDMAIL_SERVER=0

Save the file, then restart your system and the sendmail service should be gone.

After making this change to the mailservs file, restart your system, then enter:

Ps -eaf | grep sendmail

to search for sendmail processes and to verify that the sendmail process does not
exist.

COMMAND TO STOP SENDMAIL

/sbin/init.d/sendmail stop

ex : root::0:root,[login id]
Then ll |grep [fs]
ex:
#ll |grep roamcdr
#drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 96 Apr 9 2008 roamcdr
#chmod 775 roamcdr
#ll |grep roamcdr
#drwxrwxr-x 3 root root 96 Apr 9 2008 roamcdr

HOW TO RUN IGNITE:
1. First Check if you have IgniteUX installed.

# swlist -l product | grep -i ignite

It will show like this:

Ignite-UX B.4.1.61 HP-UX System Installation Services

2. Execute the command :

#nohup /opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery -v -I -x inc_entire=vg00 -a /dev/rmt/1mn
&

other command:
make_tape_recovery -Av -a /dev/rmt/**mn

3.How to check for successfull completion of the backup:

# cd /var/opt/ignite/recovery/latest date
# cat recovery.log | grep -i successful

If it shows unsuccessful , then backup is not proper, go through log , else

everything looks fine.

4. How to restore system , in the event of a failure:

(i) Interrupt normal boot process:

(ii) At PDC : check for the tape device path.
(iii) boot TAPE_DEVICE_PATH
(iv) Ignite tape will recover the entire vg00.

Adding new group

Use groupadd command to add group called pusers:

# groupadd pusers

Create a group called sshusers with GID 500:

# groupadd �g 500 sshusers

Add new user volini to group sshusers:

# useradd �d /nas/home/v/volini -m volini

Add existing user rose to group sshusers:

# usermod -G pusers rose

Rename group
Change the name sshusers to ftpusers:

# groupmod -n ftpusers sshusers

Delete the group

Remove the group called foxadmin

# groupdel foxadmin

If you manually modified the /etc/group file then you can check any group file
inconsistencies with grpck command:

# vi /etc/group
# grpck

Weird useradd problem:

Suggestions were:
1. permissions on passwd and shadow files
2. full / file system
3. corrupt useradd file
4. missing files
5. truss -o /tmp/useradd.truss -f useradd xxxxxxxx (Good stuff!)

EXAMPLES
Increase the number of the logical extents of a logical volume to 100:

lvextend -l 100 /dev/vg01/lvol3

Increase the logical volume size to 400 MB:

lvextend -L 400 /dev/vg01/lvol4

Allocate two mirrors (that is, two copies of the original) for each logical extent
of a logical volume:

lvextend -m 2 /dev/vg01/lvol5
Mirror a logical volume onto a particular physical volume.

lvextend -m 1 /dev/vg00/lvol3 /dev/dsk/c0t3d0

Increase the size of a file system existing on a logical volume.

First, increase the size of the logical volume.

lvextend -L 400 /dev/vg06/lvol3

Unmount the file system.

umount /dev/vg06/lvol3

Extend the file system to occupy the entire (larger) logical volume.
extendfs /dev/vg06/rlvol3

Remount the file system.

mount /dev/vg06/lvol3 /mnt
