Shell & OS

ears890 is a CIO bus risc 1.0 … 9.0

/system/UX-CORE/index - has os level B9.041K

before reboot

/usr/local/bin/block_intellect

uv.rc stop

after bootup

uv.rc start

dialer_info

cd /usr/local/bin; ./x29pr_mstr

rebuild swap space by sam and uxgen

size <executable> - returns the size of code, data, uninitialized data (bbs) for a program. Combine the data and uninitialized data to see the amount of swap space reserved for that process

booting in single user mode

hpuv -is boot disk(scsi 6;0x0) /hp-ux

rebuilding kernel

config dfile

make -f config.mk

make /hp-ux kernel

mailx users /usr/lib/mailx/mailx.rc

xmodmap -pm XHPKeymaps /etc/newconfig/X11R5/rgb.txt.A10 - color names

default gateway

/etc/gateway

net 0.0.0.0 gateway x.x.x.x metric 1 passive

automount files

/etc/automaster /etc/auto_home

 

File Systems

ioscan -f # produces a list of all devices

/etc/lvmpvg - vg to disk map

lvreduce -m0 /dev/vg00/lv001 - undo mirroring

pvmove -n /dev/vg00/lvol4 /dev/dsk/c0d0s2 /dev/dsk/c7d0s1 - moves data from one disk to another

/etc/vgscan recreated the /etc/lvmtab

strict allocation - mirror is on separate physical volume

parallel scheduling - write data at same time (faster)

sequential scheduling - writes data to 1st disk, if successful then the 2nd disk

mirror consistency recovery - longer recovery time because of write buffer cache at time of crash needs to be written out.

Vgexport - vgimport

must use newfs

calculate space from vgdisplay

lvcreate -L (size) -m1 vg00 or use

lvcreate -l (logical extends) -m1 vg00

diskinfo - to get product id

newfs /dev/vg00/rlvol3 ProductId

pvcreate or pvextend to add disk to volume groups

pvcreate -f /dev/rdsk/c0d0s2

mkdir vg01

mknod /dev/vg01/group c 64 0x0100000 (the hex number represents the volume group number

use lvlnboot to update / when moving root

vgreduce to remove a physical volume from a volume group

vgreduce vg01 /dev/dsk/c2d0s2

lvremove -f /dev/vg01/lvol1

vgremove /dev/vg00

MirrorDisk/UX or DataPair

Mirror Write Cache (use -M) - keeps track of PE not written to mirror in case of crash - a hit on performance.

Mirror Consistency Recovery (use -c) - upon crash reboot, checks every LE with mirror - hit on recovery / boot up time after crash

use lvchange to remove or add these options

vgcfgbackup - updates

lvmrc

uxgen - generates all sys io devices

vgscan - rebuilds lvmtab file

mkdev, ls dev, lssf, lifls, mksf, insf

insf -H 12/36.11.0 -e - to create new devices

lssf produces no vg 20 or 21 or 26

 

Security

/usr/adm/inetd.sec # network services allowed by network

time zone

set in /etc/rc /etc/profile or /etc/csh-login

TZ=EST5EDT

setuid files

find / -user root -perm 4000 -print

last # shows when user logged on last

/usr/adm/sulog or messages

 

System Monitoring

hp support 109k per year

context switching is when a process wants resources that is taken up by a large amount of other processes. The cpu ends up being used more for swaping than processesing the program

report system swaping

sar -w

swapinfo -ta # shows all swap devices

report block devices

sar -d

dumps

look for tmpsyscore

savecore -t tapedev dumpdir

/etc/savecore / - used to dump

scancore corefile hp-ux > file where hp-ux is the kernel

display shared memory

ipcs -b display shared memory -sed

swchunk def = 2MB 2048 x def blocksize of 1024

uv = 17020 + 9068 + 444 = 26532

shared mem seg = 4096 for uv

shmseg - the number of shared memory segments attached to a process used when 1 multiple processes share data

ps listing headers

F - type of process

0 swapped

1 in core

2 system process

4 locked in core

S - state of process

0 non existent, Sleeping, Waiting, Running, Intermediate, Z terminated, T stopped, X growing

C - processor utilization for scheduling

PRI - priority, the higher number equals lowest priority

NI - nice value

ADDR - memory or disk address

SZ - size of core image of process

WCHAN - event for which process is waiting

STIME - starting time of process by fork not exec

TIME - execution time

use top monitor sar vmstat iostat glance

hp hardware problems

/var/adm/diag - scsi bus errors - use sysdiag/logtool to view info

Universe/Cubs

login -> ksh -> .profile -> exec /usr/local/bin/.startup ->

    1. looks in $HOME/.allow
    2. verifies id with /u1/local/logons
    3. pulls TZ and directory path of logon
    4. exec uv

Universe 7.3.3.1 can’t run on hp-ux 10.x
