apply command (in AIX only?)

Here is a fast way to do function loop : 

apply "ssh server%1_pers date" 2 3 5 6  7 8

Replaces %1 with following parameters 

same as : 

for i in 2 3 5 6 7 8 
do
     ssh server${i}_pers date
done

Exclude files or directories from commands

An easy way to remove elements from command line : 

root:/# rm !(*.c|*.h)  => remove every files except *.c or *.h) 

another syntax : 

root:/# rm !(*.@(c|h))  => same thing ...

Can be used with grep, for directories exlusion. :

root:/#  grep P770_P7_1_A30 !(www|logs)/* => grep P770_P7_1_A30 from every underlying directories, except www and logs

Be sure to be on different switchs !

It's good to have more than one fcs adapter... but it's better to be sure they are connected on different switchs !
Each id is different, if it is on another switch

in this case we have two  adapters (or 2 ports on the same card):

root:/# lsdev -c adapter | grep fcs
fcs0   Available 30-T1 Virtual Fibre Channel Client Adapter
fcs1   Available 31-T1 Virtual Fibre Channel Client Adapter


but on the same vio server ! ....

root:/# echo "vfcs" | kdb
           START              END

patch alt_disk install image


create disk copy :
     alt_disk_copy -O -B -d "hdisk25 hdisk26"
wake up disk copy :
     alt_rootvg_op -W -d hdisk25
update alternate disk copy : 
     alt_rootvg_op -C -b update_all -l /updates/5300-12-04
close alternate disk copy, and bosboot it:
     alt_rootvg_op -St

how to find the underlying vio server

I need to know, from a partition, how to find which vio server it relies on :

We need to use kdb  : 

on Npiv servers

root @test #  echo "vfcs" | kdb
           START              END

Some stuff....

SED : (merci nico)

to remove, with a sed command, every thing before the dot :

echo " aaa.bbb" | sed 's/^.*\.//g'
bbb

^ = from the line beginning
. = one caracter

.* (dot with *) every caracters


Python : 

I have the following file, which contains server names, and dates.

root@test # cat file
server_a
09192012
09292012
09302012
server_b

 04022012
04082012
04262012
10072012
...


The date is american format, so i need to convert it in europeen format, so
reverse chain 2 by 2  (convert date from mmddyyyy to ddmmyyyy)

the simplest python command to do that is :

>>> x=06242012 
>>>x=x[2:4:]+x[0:2:]+x[4:8::]
>>> x
'24062012'


As i need to use it on the command line, to process a verrryy large file, i built a simple python file :

root@test #cat conv.py

#!/bin/python
# -*-coding:utf-8 -*

import sys
for line in sys.stdin:
        line=line.strip("\r\n") # need to remove trailing \n because my var is not numbers if there is a \n
        if line.isdigit():          # we only rework lines that are numbers
                line=line[2:4:]+line[0:2:]+line[4:8:]
        print line


root@test #cat file | ./conv.py 

server_a
19092012
29092012
30092012
server_b
22022012
18042012
26042012
07102012
...

 job's done...

same stuff with perl (one liner!) (merci Guigui)

root@test #echo 09192012 | perl -ne "s/(\d\d)(\d\d)(\d\d\d\d)/\2\/\1\/\3/;print"

TTL et cache DNS

Si on interroge un dns cache, et qu'aucun des primaires ne connait l'adresse demandée, il y aura un TTL avant de pouvoir vraiment redécouvrir l'adresse, une fois que celle ci sera connue dans un DNS. Ce TTL se déclenche à la premiere interrogation (ici il est de 3600 secondes):

Formatter la sortie en ksh

Pour avoir des chiffres sur 3 digits en shell, il suffit de formatter la variable via un typeset : 
let a=1
typeset -RZ3 variable
echo "a=$a"
 
a=001
