Thank you both for computing this. Solaris on SPARC gives a different
value as you can see if Sun Studio is used. In fact, it gives a
different value with gcc if a slightly more complex program is
compiled. It would appear that in this case, gcc can inline this, so
does not need to make a call to the maths library.

Hi Kevin...
My J50 has 3 dual-cpu cards and I believe I have another spare, as Pete
Backhouse dropped out of contact before collecting the spare J50 I'd picked
up for a song. It'll take me some time to get around to analysing and
photographing the cards, but I would guess that it would mostly be signal

2009-12-31T20:57:49Z

I'm curious about the CPU cards as used on the 7013-J50, 7015-R50, SP2
High Node, etc.
There were a TON of FRUs for the 200MHz part. I saw an ancient post
on this group that said IBM had a lot of trouble with the design of
this card.
After the 'X4D', it seems it was replaced by the '4EG'. I have 3 X4D

Is there anyone with access to a native IBM C compiler who could tell
me the output of this program
int main() {
printf("%.16lf\n",exp(1.0));
I've tried this program on 9 different hardware/software combinations,
using both the GNU and native compilers on AIX, HP-UX (PA-RISC),
Linux, Solaris 10 (SPARC), Open Solaris (x86). All except Sun Studio

Re: LVM question : how to merge 2 VGs intoa single one without data loss ?

2009-12-23T14:53:24Z

The point is we don't have any free disk space to increase either VG.
That's why I was looking for a way to merge the 2 VGs into a single
one without having to backup/restore data.
The (rather stupid) way it has been designed, we have a full disk
cabinet dedicated to storage (SAN), sliced up into disks attached to

Hi,
forget about the "dd" thing. Even if you would be able to figure out the binary
structure of VGDA it would be required to change ODM, LVCB and there respective
references too. There must be a reason why there is no "mergevg" command :-)

Thanks for answering.
There is no deliberate choice from us to have only 1 LV/FS per VG.
It's just the way it has been done on that particular server.
Had it been thought of before, we would have created 1 VG for the two
LV/FS, and wouldn't have had any problem reducing one of them to
extend the other...

Hi,
to my knowledge - no way. There is no offical AIX command or any
combination of LVM commands to achieve what you want. The only way to
get both LVs into the same VG is:
- get a third disk hdisk3
- add hdisk3 to VG1
- create a LV3 on VG1 of exact the same size of LV2 on VG2

Hi !
Is there any way to merge 2 PVs belonging to 2 *different* VGs into 1
VG *without* losing data already stored in the 2 PVs ?
I'm working on AIX 5.3 ML4.
I've got 2 different VGs, each with only one PV. Each VGs contains
only one LV/FS (jfs2) + the jfslog LV.
The FS (and the VGs) are big : around 12 Tb each. One of them is
