Hmmm, but IBM support told me I should.
The reason I noticed it was that I was trying to get
sar to work. I did what the IBM instructions say to
do:
1. uncomment the stuff in adm's crontab
2. uncomment the stuff in /etc/rc
3. Reboot.
Still couldn't get sar to run. Called IBM support
back and they said to:
1. link /unix to /usr/lib/boot/unix_up
2. link /usr/lib/boot/unix to /usr/lib/boot/unix_up
3. bosboot -ad /usr/ipldevice
4. reboot
I can't reboot the machine until Sunday, so this is on
hold until then.
Why do you say "Don't change it"?
