HMC and Unix Box not connected

Hi There,

I'm new here and this is my first (of many :wink: ) problems. I've got AIX 5.3 on our unix box and i'm trying to do a DLPAR memory change, but then I ok it I get an error telling me that there is no RMC connection. Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this?

Thanks in advance.

Kees

here is a nice checklist

funksen, Thanks for that link, its excellent.

But my next problem is trying to change the /etc/hosts file on the hmc, how can I do that easily? I've tried connecting to the hmc via ssh and I can use vi to change it, I don't know any other way to do it?

Hi KeesH, welcome.
New question: post a new thread.
Add whether it is a power4 or a power5 system, makes a BIG difference.
See you in the new thread.
