Unconfiguring a 2104 Model TS4 from an AIX host system

To remove a 2104 Model TS4 from an AIX host system, type the following
command:

rmdev -l [enclosurenumber] -d

where [enclosurenumber] is the enclosure device that was generated by the

cfgmgr

command (for example, [ses0], [ses1], [ses2]).

Remove the ses_healthcheck job from the system cron table.

Configuring a 2104 Model TS4 in a Linux for pSeries environment

In general, Linux for pSeries systems are automatically configured during initial start
up or restart. See the Linux for pSeries documentation for more information.

Collecting Errors

Note:

Collecting errors through the cron job is only available on systems that are
running AIX.

To collect enclosure errors, add this cron job SES Healthcheck to the system cron
table.

Note:

You must have root permissions to complete this procedure.

Edit the system crons with the

crontab -e

command. At the bottom of the file, enter:

15 * * * * /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin/run_ses_healthcheck 1> /dev/null 2>
/dev/null

For more information about the crontab command, see the following Web site:

http://publib16.boulder.ibm.com/pseries/en_US/cmds/aixcmds1/crontab.htm

This cron runs at 15 minutes after each hour, and e-mails the root user with details
of any errors in the enclosure. It also presents a console message that indicates
which enclosure has a problem. The cron requires a script. To create this script,
generate a file named run_ses_healthcheck in the /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin directory.

The contents of the file must be:

#!/bin/ksh
#Name: run_ses_healthcheck
#Location: /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin
#Function: SCSI SES hourly healthcheck
for i in `lsdev -Cc container -t ses -s scsi -F name -S available`
do

diag -cd $i > /dev/null
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then

/usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin/diagrpt -o > /tmp/ses.health.output
# you may want to process the output prior to placing it in
# a file.
# somehow notify the user of the error. A sample is shown
# below.
mail -s ’2104 Health Check’ root < /tmp/ses.health.output
