mkwpar, truss and coffee!
A colleague was attempting to recreate a WPAR. The WPAR had previously
been removed using the WPAR Manager Web GUI. This worked, or so he tells me! Anyway, when he tried to create the WPAR again from the GUI, using

Each of the NIM articles focuses on migrating AIX systems (which are configured as NIM clients).

This is the very first step you should take before you... [More]
