i think init never reaches this entry - it hangs at some not-returning
":wait:" entry before

                I was wondering...after upgrading to AIX 5.1 has anyone
had any issues with inittab entries executing? We recently upgraded the
server to AIX 5.1 ML05 and ever since then inittab does not appear to be
able to start our dsmc sched process, load kernel extensions for oracle,
etc. The system boots up fine and all the entries in inittab meet syntax
requirements. Any ideas?
                 
                -rw------- 1 root system 3494 Jan 26 22:38
/etc/inittab
                 
                Sample entries:
                 
                adsm:2:respawn:/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmc sched
> /dev/null 2>&1 # ADSM Scheduler
                dsmcad:2:once:/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmcad #
ADSM Web Client
                orapw:2:wait:/etc/loadext -l /etc/pw-syscall
                orakstat:2:wait:/etc/loadext -l /etc/ora_kstat
