    How to check the particular apar is installed in aix?

    Many times we are in the position to check or install the specific aparin aix.

    Oracle Database Gateways 18c (18.4) for IBM AIX on POWER Systems. Contoh soal toeic dan pembahasannya. ( 1,470,906,192 bytes) (sha256sum. Whenever the rpm.rte AIX LPP gets updated - for whatever reason, e.g., a technology level update - problems may arise if you have installed newer versions of the following three packages from my website.

    Below is the way to check whether the particular apar is alreadyinstalled or not.
    Example: APAR IZ97457




    The above output shows that the APAR IZ97457is already installed on the server.

    Suppose if the apar is not installed on the serverthen we have to get the apar first and then installed it.
    To list of fixes/apar that are on a directoryor CD, then we can use the following:
    # instfix -Td <directory> (or) # instfix -Td /dev/cd0
    once you find out then installed the fix with thebelow command
    # instfix -k IZ97457 -d /export/filesets (or) use # smitty update_by_fix




    oslevel -s--> find outthe current os level of the system.
    instfix –i grep –i ml --> check currently installed MLlevels are consistent
    lppchk –vm3 --> check currentlyinstalled filesets are consistent
    df -g --> check the system has theenough free space.
    bootlist -m normal -o --> check the blv has been createdon the rootvg disk
    emgr -l --> check the installed ifixes/emergency fixes.
    emgr -r -L <ifix label> --> To removing the ifixes / emergency fixes.
    Download the TL/SP package from IBM fix central and put it to nim server

    2. Create the alt_disk(Consider we have hdisk0 & hdisk1 on the rootvg)
    sysdumpdev –s /dev/sysdumpnull --> If secondary dump deviceresides on hdisk1.
    unmirrorvg rootvg hdisk1 -->unmirrror (Have to use the hdisk1 for alt_disk)
    chpv –c hdisk1 --> clearthe boot image on the hard disk1.
    reducevg rootvg hdisk1 --> remove the hdisk1 fromthe rootvg disk.
    alt_disk_copy -d hdisk1 --> Take the alt disk cloneon hdisk1
    lspv --> confirm the'altinst_rootvg' created onhdisk1

    smitty commit --> commit all the old applied filesets
    installp -s -->check if any os filesets in applied mode
    mount <nim_server>:<package holding directory> /mnt --> mount directory which hold the TL pkg.
    smitty update_all -- > Do thepreview first and commit next, once done follow below
    lppchk -v -->No output should displayed, only the prompt
    Aix 7.2 latest tl level
    bootlist -m normal hdisk0 -->Change the bootlist to hdisk0 - remember alt_dsk reside on hdisk1

    4. Validation
    instfix –i grep ML -->confirm the new TL level are consistent.
    lppchk –v --> Nooutput should displayed, only the prompt
    5. Remove the alt_disk andre-mirror
    extendvg -f rootvg hdisk1 -->extend the hdisk1 to the rootvg
    mirrorvg rootvg hdisk1 --> To mirror with thehdisk1
    bootlist –m normal hdisk0 hdisk1 -->Set the boot sequence
    bootlist –m normal –o --> check the bootsequence order
    mklv –y <lvname> -t sysdump rootvg <num of LP’s>hdisk1 --> Create the dump lv onhdisk1 if you have removed during the alt disk clone
    sysdumpdev –s /dev/<lv name> -->Create the secondary dump device on hdisk1
