I am nearly done working my way through the IBM doc, "Recovery from an LED 553 in AIX V4" (slow going, since every reboot takes 20 minutes on this J50). I thought I'd post what was going on when the system hung up in the first place in case it provides clues that I'm not getting.
Someone was adding and configuring a new user. This is his account:
1) logged in using X-Windows emulation.
2) Created a directory under /u02 named oracle
3) Added user "oracle" in the /etc/passwd file
4) I am not sure if I added a group for oracle in /etc/group file or it already existed. Have to check the file after the system comes up. [He didn't; User 'oracle' is in another group.]
5) Tried to copy the .profile from [another server]. Was not able to ftp. That is when I found out I was not able to establish a new connection.
Should this provides any clues? /user is no longer full, BTW. TIA.
