Study AIX

Hi Friends iam planning to do AIX course. I have experiance in Solaris10. I need to know which is the Latest AIX version in the industry using.. If possible can u give me some ideas about AIX

Hi,

current AIX version are 5.3 and 6.1

When you are experienced in Solaris, I would suggest you have a look into this redbook that should give you a pretty thorough overview about whats different on AIX ...

IBM Redbooks | AIX Reference for Sun Solaris Administrators

Kind regards

Yep, read it first.

As you asked what industry is using, I suspect most installations are using 5.3, but this will probably reach end-of-support-life in 2011. Consequently 6.1 might be a better bet for the longer term.
