Re: /unix linked to /usr/lib/boot/unix_mp - but it's a single processor

I have found that this is the case if the install detects a system that is
MP capable, even if it has only one processor.

Don't change it.

I have a fairly new (couple months old) B50 runinng
AIX 4.3.3 ML9. I've been having a devil of a time
getting sar to work, and have noticed that /unix is
linked to /usr/lib/boot/unix_mp, not
/usr/lib/boot/unix_up. I think this is what is
causing my sar problem.

So, how do I fix? Can I just unlink /unix, re-link to
/usr/lib/boot/unix_up, then reboot? Is there anything
else that I need to do or to check?

I'll need to take another mksysb after the reboot,
won't I?
