I don't need 10 points, but I find this site pretty helpful:

Also, I would suggest for people to actually use the search functionality for the forums. I am still flabbergast at the number of posts that ask the same questions.

Court, that was a great start since you don't need 10 points I am giving you 9points he he.

Thanks a lot

Hi,

>>tricks n scripts for easy configuration????

No clues :o
You mean to say easy troubleshooting or easing day today monitoring kinda stuff?

I came across a thread which has hell lotta bunch of scripts for day today activities but I didnt bookmarked it.
That thread was very good collection of scripts one admin needs in his life!

Also nice site for some tips of hpux : http://www.hpux.ws/

It's not that. Giving away 10 points to everyone will probably not get you many replies. A lot of the people that provide help like to get points because they deserve them, not because it was easy. One of my quotes is "Respect the hat." It's hard to respect something anyone can get.

Hi

1. How about this which shows the memory and cpu usage of every processes.
#export UNIX95=1;ps -ef -o comm,pcpu,vsz,args | grep

2. Never let the HP Engineer left before the system back to normal after repair (Sorry to all HP Engineers), this is what I have seen in my experience.
3. Do't touch any accessories without wear the earthing stripe.

[Jeeshan]

Yeah, thats write guys. and i think ITRC is the resource center for such kind of tricks.

Hi Yogeswar,

To overcome the -mtime, -atime, -ctime limitations of find on HP-UX, I normally use the -newer option of find with touch command as below. I found it useful on many times for me as well as the forum members:


cd /tmp

(create a file named filen with a time stamp of 0900 May 3, 2008)

[ 2008 05 03 0900 ]

/tmp #touch -mt 200805030900 filen

list the file to check the time stamp:
/tmp # ll filen
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 0 May 3 09:00 filen

Find all files in /tmp dir created after 0900 today (May 3)

/tmp #find /tmp -xdev -type f -newer /tmp/filen -exec ls -l {} +


It would list all the files created after 0900 May 3.

For my 10 bucks!

Rasheed Tamton.
