Hi all

I have installed AIX 5.3 on P561 machine .I am following the steps written in guide but at the end when finish the installation and system reboots then i got set time and date ,smit type screen after update some packages like rcst.base and etc i turn it in multi user mode . then showing me this msg :
0513-059 The ctrmc Subsystem has been started. Subsystem PID is 156022
i reboot my machine and turnon in to Maintenance mode then i found login screen.
after surffing on the net i found the solution as show below :
which of the following should not be perform by the administrator in order to restart the srcmstr
process?
a. run telinit q
b reboot the system
c. run /usr/sbin/srcmstr
d. run startsrc -s srcmstr
OR

• The System Resource Controller (SRC) master daemon record in the /etc/inittab file is either missing or damaged.

Procedures for Recovery

• Use the mkitab command to create a record of the SRC master daemon in the /etc/inittab file:

mkitab -i fbcheck srcmstr:2:respawn:/etc/srcmstr

• Reprocess the /etc/inittab file by entering:

telinit q


when i start srcmstr script from the path system hang badly .(no response )
then i restart my machine from ASMI (Immediate boot) and check the logical volumes .I saw /usr got 91% used .So i reduce it into 28 % becouse all scripts run in it...

and when i start any subsystem or subgroup in Maintenance mode (like qdaemon or bootbos ) it shows me The System Resource Controller daemon is not active.

I need help and i have got all the usefull information from this FAQ like ASMI ,Network interfaces problems etc ...
reply me ASAP
thx

why do you need to take the server into maintenance mode?
After the upgrade, just reboot and let it run in multi-user mode, that is the fully operational mode.

best regards,

Hi,
Does the box have an IP address? If so, is it pingable and can you log into the box? It sounds like you are just using a console connection. I know from personal expierence that at times I have to add clocal to the TTY runmods and logmodes before I can use the console. My box would hang at about CTRMC, I don't remember the exact line as it has been a while. You can try the following. From maintenance mode run the command below. Then reboot the box.

chdev -l 'tty0' -a \
runmodes='hupcl,cread,brkint,icrnl,opost,tab3\
,onlcr,isig,icanon,echo,echoe,echok,echoctl\
,echoke,imaxbel,iexten,clocal' \
-a logmodes='hupcl,cread,echoe,cs8,clocal' '-P'

hi dear how you doing?
i have try this command without knowing in single user mode.



chdev -l 'tty0' -a \
runmodes='hupcl,cread,brkint,icrnl,opost,tab3\
,onlcr,isig,icanon,echo,echoe,echok,echoctl\
,echoke,imaxbel,iexten,clocal' \
-a logmodes='hupcl,cread,echoe,cs8,clocal' '-P'

It shows me this msg chdev: 0514-519 The following device was not found in the customized
device configuration database:
tty0


then i have check what is that values in /etc/inittab ....thats status was:
vty1:2ff:/usr/sbin/getty /dev/vty1



then i try it again with.



chdev -l 'vty1' -a \ runmodes='hupcl,cread,brkint,icrnl,opost,tab3\,onl cr,isig,icanon,echo,echoe,echok,echoctl\,echoke,im axbel,iexten,clocal' \-a logmodes='hupcl,cread,echoe,cs8,clocal' '-P'


Method error (/etc/methods/chgtty):
0514-033 Cannot perform the requested function because the
specified device is dependent on an attribute which does
not exist.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Then i will go to smit --->Device --->TTY ---> and available all console types and then go to console and available all console..........
then i reboot this machine with command:

shutdown -Fr

then again it shows me this msg in multi user mode : Saving Base Customize Data to boot disk

then i again reboot the machine from ASM and turn it on in Single User mode :



then i saw /etc/inittab

..but problem was the same ...




0513-059 The ctrmc Subsystem has been started. Subsystem PID is 180670.

You ARE connecting serially, yes? Are you using a FULLY PINNED cable? If not, get one and try again...
