Lipp,
          Thanx for the info, as per your info it sounds some thing similar
to the one i have seen on True64 unix. Anyway, you said that the serial port
has to assigned to AIX, what do you mean by this, do you mean to say that
the serial port has to be configured (if that is so) where will the other
end of the serial port connected to??

May be i am not getting the point properly.

TIA
Praveen.K

Remote reboot can be useful if you are managing systems remotely. If AIX ,
is no longer responding, one could dial in and cause
the O.S. to reboot. Since the serial port runs at the highest system
interrupt, the chances that the serial driver will get scheduled is
pretty good. This function is only useful on stand alone systems that have
the serial port assigned to AIX. HMC managed systems
can reset partitions without enabling this function.

We have recently attached a FASTt 600 to a 7028-6C4. I have to dar (dar0 and dar1) devices with each one containing single dac devices (dac0 and dac1). Can anyone tell me how to get down to one dar0 device with both dac0 and dac1 listed.

We have an existing FASTt config that has this. One dar0 device with both dac0 and dac1 listed underneath it. My understanding is that this helps with load balancing. I didn't originally configure the FASTt itself. Does anyone know if this could be a configuration issue on the FASTt end or is it just a matter of me configuring something on the AIX systm.

Sorry if this is slightly off topic. Thanks in advance for the help!
