Automating deployment and activation of virtual appliances for IBM AIX and Power Systems
Server virtualization enables you to rapidly provision new environments by using libraries of virtual image templates, or virtual appliances. Automated provisioning requires the management of operating system, network, and application-specific customization. This article provides a sample framework for automating virtual image deployment and activation on Power Systems, with a downloadable example that demonstrates how to provision a virtual appliance made up of IBM WebSphere Application Server V7.0 running on AIX V5.3.

Transition to AIX from Solaris
You've been working with Solaris for ten years now and, like many other companies, you have just started a large server consolidation and migration project to AIX(R) 6.1 from Solaris 10. Many of the commands are similar, but you need to know how to work with partitioning and virtualization. What are the partitioning differences between an IBM(R) and Sun server? Furthermore, what do you need to know about workload partitions (WPARs) to make a successful transition from containers? What are some of the similarities and differences between WPARs and zones, and how does the process differ from creating zones and WPARs? Finally, what can you do on the IBM System p(TM) that you can't do with Sun servers? These are some of the questions addressed in this article, with the objective of making your transition easier.

System Administration Toolkit: Migrating and moving UNIX filesystems
Learn how to transfer an entire file system on a live system, including how to create, copy, and re-enable the new file system. If you have a UNIX(R) disk or system failure or simply fill up your file system, then you need to create a new partition and file system and copy over the contents. You might even need to mount the new partition in place to preserve the location of vital files and components. To add further complications, you need to do this on a live system, where you'd need to preserve file permissions, ownership, and possibly named pipes and other components. Effectively transferring these components and retaining all of this information is a vital part of the migration process.
