- I have never heard of this requirement before - and Ive heard many
- about AIX deficiencies from customers and support personnel.
- (at least more than I can count using my fingers and toes :-))
-
- 11 systems programmers independently changing the rootvg of 27 RS6000's
- sounds like quite a unique environment to me. At first glance, the first
- solution that comes to mind is to change volume group arrangements so
- that rootvg is more static. IE rootvg should just have AIX stuff in it.
- Or is this how it is already? And I dont see how inode backups solves
- your problem.
-
- Bottom line is that I dont think the IBM designers are concerned about
- this because it seems to be the first time that it has come up.
-
- If any IBM'ers think I'm wrong , please correct me via email to save me
- much public embarrasment.
-
- If any customers think I'm wrong, please feel free to correct me here on
- the net, or via email, as you prefer.
