This is causing problem in doing change directory to the NFS mount directory.
I was able to get some code which does newgrp to change the default group so that I could change directories into NFS mount.
But as per the man pages of “newgrp”. Looks like newgrp command invokes new shell everytime when it is called.
I am calling newgrp command as part of my korn shell. I would like to know, if calling it will impact my rest of the shell.
Looks like I could handle this issue by using here document.
But not sure if this is the right way. I have read other documentation to handle this NFS mount 16+ group situation but nothing seems to be helpful in my case (and not easy to understand documentation)
Help is appreciated.
/usr/bin/newgrp group1 << newgrp1
echo "Changing directory to /nfsmount/abc"
cd /nfs/abc
/usr/bin/newgrp group2
cd /nfs/abc/def
cp /nfs/abc/def/test.txt /landingarea/app
if [ $? -eq 0 ];
then
echo "copy successfull"
else
echo "copy failed
fi

AIX 6.1 TL7 SP6
POwerHA 6.1 SP10
I was experimenting with new hacmp build. It’s 3-node cluster build on AIX 6.1 lpars. It contains Ethernet and diskhb networks. Shared vg disk is SAN disk. Two nodes see disk using vscsi, third node sees disk using npiv. Application is db2 server.
Most accidents usually involve some kind of network failure – so I decided to test my cluster against Ethernet failure and SAN failure. Ethernet failure test was successful – when node lost Ethernet connectivity(both cables of course) my resource group jumped to next node with no problem.
Next I did SAN failure test:
I did it in 2 different ways by removing vsci mapping in vios or by removing fcs mapping in vios(npiv case) – results were exactly the same in both cases – cluster reacted correctly and started release_vg_fs event, release_vg_fs script tried to unmount filesystems but since all fs disk devices were gone script just hung, and cluster started issuing config_too_long events..
So clstat reports resouce group as “RELEASING..” and that’s it…
How do I configure PowerHA to handle full vg loss(for example SAN down causes that) correctly ??
thanks,
Vilius M.

system 1 : LINUX
User: abcd
system 2: AIX (it is hosting a production DB)
Requirement
user abcd from system 1 should have read access on archive log files created by DB on system 2. The log files are created with permissions 540 by user ora , group oracle. The log files are not getting created on a shared drive, it is a physical drive on system 2.
The requirement is just to read the log files and not change anything in them.
Following options are ruled out:
1. Shipping files from System 2 to system 1. There is a utility trying to read those file, won’t get access for shipping.
2. Creating same user abcd on system 2 and make it part of system 1.
Note: the two systems are on the same network
can someone help on this ?

scp -v -P 4030 /home/lawson/.ssh/jimtest.txt someuser@some.ftpsite.net:/Inbound/jimtest.txt > jimtest_out.txt 2>&1
Based on the output from the command it looks like it is authenticating correctly, but the file is not getting sent or they tell me they are not getting it. Can you take a look at the above command and let me know if it is not correct. I am currently doing this from the command line, but will script it when I get it working. Below is output from the comman execution.

Then I will have a Cron Job to run the script every night or 2-3 times a day depends on how this script helps.
Right now, I run “ps -ef | grep webrebn” and “kill -9 PID” to kill the idle processes using PID if I see any. Then repeat for “webrepw”. The problem is if I forget to do so for couple days, my system will be very slow.
Would anybody help me out here?
I am using DB2 database in AIX 5.3 server.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
