AIX Scripts

These are fun for me to read because I can see my progression as I learn more stuff. Since they all work, I still have these in production.

Major update to mklvfs.ksh

major update to mklvfs and fsgen

Korn Shell

All scripts are for AIX versions 4.3.3 or 5.1.0 unless otherwise specified. Most have been used on AIX 5.2 as well. These are written for my environment and some will require modification. These have a very small chance of working on a non-AIX system. Believe it or not, these are largely original.

Simple:

• fl: reset unsuccessful_login_count=0 and account_locked=false for a userid [PRODUCTION]
• tapedumprm.ksh: remove device dumps from IBM 3590 [PRODUCTION]
• j131.ksh: install java 1.3.1 and change java 1.1.8 links to java 1.3.1 [TEST]
• mqmon.ksh: monitor MQSeries error logs [PRODUCTION]
• saafsmon.ksh: clean SA Agent logs as needed [PRODUCTION]

More complex:

• mklvfs: makes a lv and puts a fs on top [PRODUCTION]
• fsgen: creates command file that uses mklvfs [PRODUCTION]
• mergevg.ksh: merge two volume groups; this is dangerous [WORKS]

Perl

Written for v5.8.8 (base) on AIX unless otherwise indicated.

• exparse: parses and unparses /etc/exports for easier editing, mostly useful for those of us with gigantic exports files [TEST]

environment examples

I have two things in my .profile, everything else is in .kshrc

• .profile: startup commands, sets ENV file
• .kshrc: ENV file, sets options, ENV variables, aliases, and function definitions
• function lf:sample function named ~/.func/lf

One-liners

• df -k|awk '{print $4,$7}'|sort -nr : sort fs by size
• /usr/lib/lpd/pio/etc/piomisc_ext mkpq_remote_ext -q <QUEUENAME> -h <HOSTNAME> -r <REMOTEQUEUENAME> -t bsd "<DESCRIPTION>" : create a JetForms print queue
• grep -p nfs /etc/filesystems | awk -F: ' /:/ {system("mount "$1}' : find and mount all nfs
