    <P>You can choose to do a preview installation before performing the acutal
    installation. A preview installation provides the preinstallation
    information that will occur during a regular installation, however no software
    will actually be installed.
    <P>When you select a package or fileset to be installed with the preview
    installation process, you will see a list that contains all the requisite
    packages and filesets needed by the selected package or fileset to be
    successfully installed.
    <P>The other information generated during the preinstallation process concerns
    file system size checking. The file systems are checked to make sure
    there is enough free space available to install the selected package or
    fileset.
    <P>You can run the list software and previewing software functions from the
    command line, the SMIT interface, or the Web-based System Manager
    interface.

    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_50">Firmware</A></H4>
    <P>The firmware in many of the PCI bus-based RS/6000 machines is limited
    regarding the region of the hard disk from which it can read a boot
    image. This problem will not be encountered under most
    circumstances. The symptom of the problem is a failure to boot from
    hard disk, and a message from firmware similar to <TT>unrecognized Client
    Program format</TT>.
    <P>The affected machines can be identified most easily as the machines that
    provide access to the firmware System Management Services by means of pressing
    the F1 keys on the system attached keyboard, or the 1 key on a tty
    keyboard.
    <P>The problem is that the firmware on the affected machines cannot read the
    boot image from the hard disk if any part of the boot image resides past the 4
    gigabyte boundary on the hard disk. This is not a problem for most
    customers because the AIX installation process creates the boot logical volume
    at the beginning of the disk. This is achieved by using the
    <B>-a</B> flag with the <B>mklv</B> command and specifying
    <B>e</B> (which corresponds to <B>edge</B>) as the argument for the
    <B>-a</B> flag. Using the <B>mklv</B> command with this
    parameter results in the boot logical volume being created at the edge of the
    hard disk, and the resulting address that the firmware uses to read the boot
    image will be within a safe range. The AIX installation process has
    always created the boot logical volume near the edge of the hard disk because
    that region of the hard has the slowest access time, and this allows other
    regions of the hard disk to be used by filesystems that can benefit from the
    better performance.
    <P>The only way that a customer can encounter this problem is by creating and
    initializing a new boot logical volume that extends past the 4 gigabyte
    boundary of the hard disk, either in part or in entirety.
    <P>In almost all cases, there is no need for a customer to create a new boot
    logical volume, but if they do, they should use the <B>lsvg</B> and
    <B>lslv</B> commands to verify that the newly created boot logical volume
    does not reside above the 4 gigabyte address on the hard disk.
    <P>An example of this calculation follows:
    <OL TYPE=1>
    <LI>Run <B>lsvg rootvg</B> to determine PP SIZE.
    <DL><DT><B>Note:</B></DT><DD>On a 4.5 gigabyte hard disk,the default PP SIZE is 8 megabytes.
    </DD></DL>
    </LI><LI>Run <B>lslv -m bootlv00</B>
    <P>Replace bootlv00 with the name of the newly created boot logical
    volume. The numbers in the second, fourth, and sixth columns of the
    output indicate the physical partitions which have been assigned to the boot
    logical volume. If the PP SIZE is 8 megabytes, the boot logical volume
    must not use any physical partition above 511. (512 * 8 = 4096, which
    is 4 gigabytes). Similarly, if the PP SIZE is 16 megabytes, the boot
    image must not use any partition above 255, and if the PP SIZE is 4 megabytes,
    then the boot image must not use any partition above 1023.
    </LI></OL>
    <P>As a reminder, this problem will not happen unless the customer has created
    and initialized a boot image that resides above the 4 gigabyte
    boundary.

    <P>Prior to AIX 4.3.3, several key network options had a single
    global default value, making it very difficult to tune a system that has
    widely differing network adapters. Some applications are capable of
    setting their own options (overriding the defaults), but most of these
    applications only allow a single setting and this does not work well with
    different network adapters.
    <P>AIX 4.3.3 provides a feature called Interface Specific
    Network Options (ISNO). This feature can be enabled (the default) or
    disabled by setting the <B>no</B> option (<B>use_isno</B>) to 1 or
    0.
    <P>For each network interface, five new parameters have been added;
    <B>rfc1323</B>, <B>tcp_nodelay</B>, <B>tcp_sendspace</B>,
    <B>tcp_recvspace</B>, and <B>tcp_mssdflt</B>. These correspond
    to the same values in the <B>no</B> options.
    <P>If these values are set for a specific interface, then they will override
    the system <B>no</B> default value. This allows different network
    adapters to be tuned for the best performance.
    <P>Use the <B>lsattr -E -l</B> <I>interface</I> command to display the
    values. They can be changed via the <B>chdev -l</B>
    <I>interface</I> <B>-a</B> <I>attribute</I>=<I>value</I>
    command. For example, <TT>chdev -l en0 -a tcp_recvspace=65536 -a
    tcp_sendspace=65536</TT> sets the <B>tcp_recvspace</B> and
    <B>tcp_sendspace</B> to 64K for <B>en0</B> interface. Using the
    <B>chdev</B> command will change the value in the ODM database so it will
    be saved between system reboots. If you want to set a value for testing
    or temporarily, use the <B>ifconfig</B> command. For example,
    <TT>ifconfig en0 hostname tcp_recvspace 65536 tcp_sendspace 65536 tcp_nodelay
    1</TT> sets the <B>tcp_recvspace</B> and <B>tcp_sendspace</B> to 64K
    and enables <B>tcp_nodelay</B>.
    <P>You can also use the <B>ifconfig</B> <I>interface</I> command to
    display these values.

    <P>Network Terminal Accelerator is not supported on AIX Version
    4.3.
    <P><H3><A NAME="Header_75" HREF="#MTOC_75">System Networking, Analysis and Performance Pilot (SNAPP)</A></H3>
    <P>The 4330-05 Recommended Maintenance Package contains the SNAPP
    product. SNAPP is used for performing limited system administration and
    basic RS/6000 network configuration from a handheld Personal Digital Assistant
    (PDA) through a serial line connection. The handheld PDA must be
    compatible with Palm OS.
    <P>The SNAPP product's primary purpose is to allow IP address
    configuration on a newly preinstalled AIX system that does not have a monitor
    or ASCII terminal and keyboard attached. It is assumed that once the
    AIX machine is on a network, access can be given to it through
    <B>telnet</B>, the <B>rlogin</B> command, or some other TCP/IP remote
    login command. However, the SNAPP product is not designed to replace a
    monitor or ASCII terminal.
    <P>The SNAPP product consists of a SNAPP client, the
    <B>Snapp.prc</B> program, which resides on a handheld PDA, and a
    SNAPP server, <B>/usr/sbin/snappd</B>, which resides in AIX. The
    client and server communicate over the serial connection using simple XML
    statements. The SNAPP server performs system administration tasks
    through perl scripts.
    <P>The serial connection is made as the handheld PDA's serial cable is
    plugged into the serial port of an AIX box.
    <P>The SNAPP product is contained in the
    <B>bos.net.snapp</B> fileset. When this fileset is
    installed, all the necessary files for the SNAPP server are installed on the
    local machine. The SNAPP client binary is installed in
    <B>/usr/samples/snapp/Snapp.prc</B>. It can also be
    downloaded from the AlphaWorks site at the following URL:
    <PRE>http://www.alphaWorks.ibm.com/tech/snapp
    </PRE>
    <P>The SNAPP client requires a handheld PDA that is compatible with Palm OS
    and has a Palm OS software level of V3.5.0 or above. To
    copy the SNAPP client binary onto your handheld PDA, copy the
    <B>Snapp.prc</B> file to a PC and install the SNAPP application as
    you would install any other handheld PDA application. The SNAPP icon
    displays as a light bulb with the label <B>SNAPP</B> beneath it.
    <P>Additional information on SNAPP is available in
    <B>/usr/samples/snapp</B> and from the AlphaWorks web site.

    described in detail in RFC 2018, TCP <I>Selective Acknowledgement
    Options</I>. SACK allows TCP to recover from multiple losses within
    the window in lossy networks and internetworks.
    <P>By default, SACK is disabled. To enable it, enter the following

    <P>Functionality was added in AIX 4.3 to support backing up to
    DVD-RAM. System backups (such as the <B>mksysb</B> and
    <B>savevg</B> commands) have a limitation that they expect the media to be
    4.7 GB or larger per side. They will not process the next volume
    until they write over 4 GB on the current volume, thus the use of smaller
    media would result in corruption when going beyond the media's
    capacity. The other commands (such as <B>tar</B>, <B>cpio</B>,
    <B>backup</B>) do not have this size constraint.
    <P>For more information on creating CD and DVD backups, refer to the

    <P>The AIX 4.3.0, AIX 4.3.1, and AIX
    4.3.2 X server is upgraded to the X Consortium release 6 version
    of X (commonly known as X11R6.3). The libraries are upgraded to
    X11R6.3 as well. These libraries are backward-compatible, in
    that the broad majority of applications work as on previous releases of
    AIX. For maximum customer flexibility, compatibility options for X11R3,
    X11R4, and X11R5 libraries are also shipped.
    <P>Applications that use the loadable extension facility provided by the X
    server may need to change. The X server allows the addition of new
    functionality through its extension mechanism. For each extension, part
    of the extension is loaded into the X server before it can be executed.
    X11R6.3 has modified how this mechanism works in the course of
    improvements to X, and it is this part of the extension that must be made
    compatible with X11R6.3 to execute properly. All of the
    extensions that are supplied are compatible and execute properly. In
    some circumstances, including the following, a customer may have an extension
    that will not work with X11R6.3:
    <UL>
    <LI>A customer has a sample extension downloaded from the X Consortium FTP
    site.
    </LI><LI>A customer develops his own extension.
    </LI><LI>A customer uses a third-party extension.
    </LI></UL>
    <P>In these cases, the extension must be made compatible with X11R6.3
    before it executes properly. Customer-developed extensions and sample X
    consortium extensions must be recompiled with the X11R6.3
    environment. For third-party extensions, the customer should contact
    the vendor for a X11R6.3 compatible update.
    <P>Customers using non-IBM display adapters may also be using vendor-supplied
    software specific to those devices, which uses X11R6.3 Server
    capabilities. If so, this software must be made compatible with
    X11R6.3 to operate properly. The customer should contact the
    particular vendor of the display adapter for this software.
    <P>An AIX Version 4.3 porting guide and the information on <I>The
    Developers Connection</I> CD provides assistance to customers and vendors
    developing adapters or extensions for AIX.
    <P><H3><A NAME="Header_80" HREF="#MTOC_80">graPHIGS for AIX 4.3</A></H3>
    <P>graPHIGS applications that run Distributed Application Processes (DAPs) may
    need to change. By default on AIX 4.3, DAPs run with the new
    X11R6 libraries. If a DAP requires X11R5 libraries for any reason, the
    user may use a new flag, <B>-r5</B>, with the <B>gPinit</B> command as
    follows:
    <PRE>gPinit -a -r5
    </PRE>
    <P>The <B>-a</B> flag allows for DAP execution and has not changed.
    <P>If the <B>-r5</B> flag is used, then all DAPs run as X11R5
    clients. By default, DAPs and the graPHIGS remote nucleus run as X11R6
    clients in AIX Version 4.3.
    <P>The <B>-r5</B> flag is useful for DAPs that depend on X11R5
    functionality that no longer exists in X11R6 (for example,
    <B>XAsyncInput()</B>).
    <P>If the following message is observed while running a X11R5 DAP, then
    restart the graPHIGS remote nucleus with the <B>-r5</B> flag in addition
    to the <B>-a</B> flag.
    <PRE>WARNING: The XAsyncInput API is no longer implemented in X11R6.

    <LI>Adapter guide and reference books
    </LI><LI>Technical specifications describing industry-standard functions
    </LI><LI>Technical reference volumes used by system programmers
    </LI></UL>
    </LI></UL>
    <P>These CDs contain AIX and related products documentation designed for use
    with an HTML 3.2 Web browser, such as the Netscape browser that is
    shipped with the AIX Version 4.3 Bonus Pack. The discs require a
    CD-ROM drive. A few documents in these libraries are in PDF format and
    must be viewed using the Adobe Acrobat Reader, Version 3.0.
    <P>Beginning with AIX Version 4.3.3, the Documentation Library
    Service allows users to navigate, read, and search registered HTML documents
    using their Web browser and the library application. The library
    application presents documents in an expandable-tree format that can be
    navigated by clicking on button controls in the tree. This action opens
    those documents for reading and also allows users to search keywords using a
    search form in the application. The Documentation Library Service
    searches for those words and then presents a list of results that are linked
    to information contained in the online documentation files.
    <P>The Documentation Library Service provides three types of Graphical User
    Interfaces (GUIs) to the user, as follows:
    <UL>
    <LI>The Global Documentation Library Service GUI. This GUI shows all
    documentation on the documentation server that has been registered with the
    Global GUI. This GUI can be accessed by the icons in the Help sub-panel
    in the CDE desktop.
    </LI><LI>The AIX Documentation Library GUI. This GUI contains the AIX
    operating system manuals. This GUI can be accessed by the icons in the
    Help sub-panel in the CDE desktop.
    </LI><LI>The application GUI. Applications can use the library to create
    GUIs that just show the manuals for that application. This type of GUI
    is typically launched from within the application. An example of this
    type of GUI is the extended help GUI that is launched from within the AIX
    Web-Based System Manager application.
    </LI></UL>
    <P>Users can access the global library application by typing
    <TT>docsearch</TT> on the command line or by clicking the <B>Documentation
    Library</B> icon in the Help subpanel under the CDE Desktop front
    panel.
    <DL><DT><B>Note:</B></DT><DD>IBM continues to ship <B>topnav.htm</B>. If you have a
    bookmark to <B>topnav.htm</B>, the links out of that navigation
    model will continue to work; however, the header and footer links will
    take you into the Documentation Library Service, and you may not be able to
    get back to <B>topnav.htm</B>. If you try to open the AIX
    Version 4.3.3 Documentation Library using the AIX Library
    Documentation icon and you do not have AIX 4.3.3 documentation
    installed for the language you are using, you will be sent to a previous level
    4.3 (for example, 4.3.2) documentation navigation
    page. This page allows you to navigate to any previous level of AIX
    manuals that may be installed.
    </DD></DL>
    <P>The documentation information is made accessible by loading it onto the
    hard disk or by mounting the documentation CD in the CD-ROM drive.
    While mounting the CD saves on the amount of hard disk space used, it requires
    the CD be kept in the CD-ROM drive at all times. Also, searching the
    documentation from the CD-ROM drive can be significantly slower (in some cases
    up to ten times slower) than searching the information if it is installed on a
    hard disk.
    <P>You can install all of the AIX documentation from the AIX Version
    4.3 Base Documentation CD and the AIX Version 4.3 Extended
    Documentation CD or you can selectively install pieces of the
    documentation. Some documentation may have previously been installed
    with the operating system or other licensed products. Run the
    <B>lslpp</B> command to determine which packages and filesets are already
    installed on your system.
    <P>See <I>Installation Guide</I>, SC23-4112, for information about
    mounting the documentation CD-ROMs, installing documentation from these
    CD-ROMs, and configuring a documentation server.

    <P>You will see one of the following results or messages:
    <UL>
    <LI>The library application appears, with no error messages and the search

    more fields where you can enter words you want to search for. There are
    documents visible in at least one of the views. Try opening a document
    to read it and then searching keywords to test the search function.
    <P>If everything is working correctly and you need to install some of the
    operating system manuals, see "Installing the Online Documentation" section of
    Installation Guide.
    <P>If the search fails, go to "Problem Determination" in Chapter 19 of

    documents, try reading and searching the documents.
    <P>The library may be installed and configured correctly, but you cannot fully
    test the service until documentation is installed and registered. To
    install the operating system manuals go to "Installing the Online

    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_86">Using the man Command</A></H4>
    <P>If you are interested in viewing reference information (on topics such as
    commands, subroutines, and files) by using the <B>man</B> command, you
    must first install the AIX documentation. See the "Installation and
    Configuration" subsection under the "Documentation" section of this
    publication for more information.
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_87">Configuring the Language of the AIX Documentation</A></H4>
    <P>By default, documentation that is viewed by using the <B>docsearch</B>
    command or the CDE Desktop icons for the AIX Documentation or the
    Documentation Library appears in the same language as the current locale of
    the user's client computer.
    <P>However, you may want to see the documentation in a language other than the
    language of the system's or user's current default locale.
    Starting in AIX 4.3.2, the documentation language can be changed
    for all users on a system, or it can be changed for a single user. The
    <B>chdoclang</B> utility program is available for configuring the language
    of the AIX Documentation.
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_88">Locale Requisite for Documentation</A></H4>
    <P>Starting with AIX Version 4.3.3, the documentation requires
    its locale to be installed. The only exception is the English
    documentation, which does not require the en_US locale to be installed.
    <P>This prerequisite allows the unified library CGIs to collate and parse text
    when the library is being searched.
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_89">Changing the Documentation Language for All Users</A></H4>
    <P>To change the default documentation language for all users, the system
    administrator, logged in as the root user, runs the following command:
    <PRE>/usr/bin/chdoclang <I>locale</I>
    </PRE>
    <P>Where <I>locale</I> is the locale specification of the desired
    documentation language. Running the command as the root user adds the
    following line to the system's <B>/etc/environment</B> file:
    <PRE>DOC_LANG=locale
    </PRE>
    <P>where locale is the <I>locale</I> that is the new default documentation
    viewing and searching language. See the "Available Languages for AIX
    Documentation Library" section for the appropriate locale name to be used with
    the <B>chdoclang</B> command when configuring the language to be viewed
    when selecting the Documentation Library icon.
    <DL><DT><B>Note:</B></DT><DD>If the users are using a remote documentation server, the DOC_LANG variable
    should be set on the user's client computer, not the remote
    server. Also, the language change does not take effect until the next
    time a user logs out and back into the computer.
    </DD></DL>
    <P>For example, when a computer's default locale is English, a user sees
    English documentation when using the docsearch command or selecting the
    Documentation Library icon.
    <P>If the system administrator now wants all the users to see Japanese
    documentation instead of English, the administrator would enter the following
    command:
    <PRE>/usr/bin/chdoclang Ja_JP
    </PRE>
    <P>Which adds the following line to the system's
    <B>/etc/environment</B> file:
    <PRE>DOC_LANG=Ja_JP
    </PRE>
    <P>A user logging out and then logging back in will now see Japanese
    documentation when using the <B>docsearch</B> command or selecting the
    Documentation Library icon.
    <DL><DT><B>Note:</B></DT><DD>Before a computer can serve documents in a language, the AIX locale (language
    environment) for that language and the translated versions of the documents
    must also be installed on the documentation server.
    </DD></DL>
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_90">Changing the Documentation Language for a Single User</A></H4>
    <P>A user may override their system's default documentation language by
    running the following command:
    <PRE>/usr/bin/chdoclang locale
    </PRE>
    <P>Where <I>locale</I> is the locale specification of the desired
    documentation language. Running the command as described above will add
    the following line to the user's <B>$HOME/.profile</B> file
    (when the Korn shell is the default shell of the user):
    <PRE>DOC_LANG=locale; export DOC_LANG
    </PRE>
    <P>Where <I>locale</I> is the locale that will be the new default
    documentation viewing and searching language. See the "Available
    Languages for AIX Documentation Library" section for the appropriate locale
    name to be used with the <B>chdoclang</B> command when configuring the
    language to be viewed when selecting the Documentation Library icon.
    <P>For example, when a user's default locale is Japanese, the user will
    see Japanese documentation when they use the <B>docsearch</B> command or
    select the Documentation Library icon.
    <P>However, suppose that the Japanese documentation is not installed but the
    English documentation is installed. To view the English documentation
    when the default locale is set to Japanese, the user would execute the
    following command:
    <PRE>/usr/bin/chdoclang en_US
    </PRE>
    <P>Which adds the following line to the user's
    <B>$HOME/.profile</B> file (when the Korn shell is the default
    shell of the user):
    <PRE>DOC_LANG=en_US; export DOC_LANG
    </PRE>
    <P>A user logging out and then logging back in will now see English
    documentation when using the <B>docsearch</B> command or selecting the
    Documentation Library icon.
    <DL><DT><B>Note:</B></DT><DD>Defining the DOC_LANG environment variable in a user's
    <B>$HOME/.profile</B> (or <B>$HOME/.cshrc</B> for C
    shell users) will take precedence over any global DOC_LANG setting in their
    system's <B>/etc/environment</B> file.
    </DD></DL>
    <P>Also, CDE users must uncomment the "DTSOURCEPROFILE=true" line in the
    <B>$HOME/.dtprofile</B> file, which will cause the
    <B>$HOME/.profile</B> (or <B>$HOME/.cshrc</B> for C

    <P><H3><A NAME="Header_94" HREF="#MTOC_94">wlmassign Command</A></H3>
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_95">Purpose</A></H4>
    <P>Manually assign a process to a class.
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_96">Syntax</A></H4>
    <P>wlmassign <I>ClassName PID</I>
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_97">Description</A></H4>
    <P>The <B>wlmassign</B> command assigns the process designated by by its
    process ID, <I>PID</I> to the class named <I>ClassName</I>.
    This overrides the automatic assignment.
    <P>The <B>wlmassign</B> command is restricted to the root user.
    <P>The <I>ClassName</I> parameter specifies the class that the process is
    to. The <I>PID</I> parameter specifies the process ID of the
    process to be assigned to the new class.
    <P>In addition to manual assignment, AIX 4.3.3 now supports a
    new class attribute called <B>inheritance</B>. This attribute, with
    a <B>yes</B> or <B>no</B> value, can be added to the classes file in
    the same way the <B>tier</B> attribute is, for example. The default
    value is <B>no</B>, indicating that new processes will be automatically
    classified upon calling "exec". If the <B>inheritance</B> attribute
    is set to <B>yes</B>, a new process created by a process in the class will
    remain in the class regardless of which application it executes. The
    syntax in the classes file is similar to the syntax for the other
    attributes. Example of the description in the classes file of a class
    named "student":
    <PRE>student:
       tier = 1
       inheritance = yes
    </PRE>
    <P>Inheritance can be used together with manual assignment to assign an
    application to a class when the application starts and make sure that all the
    processes spawned by the application remain in the class to which the
    application was manually assigned. Inheritance can be used
    independently of manual assignment.
    <P>The <B>wlmassign</B> command and inheritance attribute are provided in
    AIX 4.3.3 to give 4.3.3 users early access to some
    of the features available in Workload Manager with AIX 5L. AIX 5L
    supports both manual assignment and the inheritance attribute. The AIX
    5L <B>wlmassign</B> command is a superset of the 4.3.3
    command and shell scripts using the 4.3.3 <B>wlmassign</B>
    command syntax will still work when users upgrade to AIX 5L. This
    situation is also true for class description files (classes) using
    inheritance.
    <P>When trying to manually reassign to a different class several cooperating
    processes sharing memory, there is a risk of seeing shared memory segments go
    to the shared class because between the individual manual assignments,
    processes already assigned to the new class and processes net yet assigned to
    the new class access the shared memory. It is therefore better to
    reassign an application before it has spawned processes and start sharing
    memory, using inheritance to make sure the children remain in the new
    class. If this is not possible, reassign the different processes when
    the application is not actively executing.
    <DL><DT><B>Note:</B></DT><DD>The AIX 5L version of WLM does not have this constraint since the AIX 5L
    wlmassign command takes as a parameter a list of PIDs and WLM makes the
    reassignment of all the processes as a single operation, thus preventing
    "false sharing."
    </DD></DL>
    <P>The <B>wlmassign</B> command comes with a 4.3.3 service
    update and as such does not support localization, that is, the error messages
    are in English only. The possible errors are as follows:
    <UL>
    <LI><B>wlmassign</B> is invoked by a non-root user.
    </LI><LI>Syntax errors. The command issues the "usage" string as it appears
    in the Syntax paragraph above.
    </LI><LI>WLM is not started.

    <P><H3><A NAME="Header_98" HREF="#MTOC_98">wlmset Command</A></H3>
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_99">Purpose</A></H4>
    <P>Set global options for Workload Manager.
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_100">Syntax</A></H4>
    <PRE>wlmset [-a hardcpumax={yes|no} ] [-a shared={yes|no} ]
    </PRE>
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_101">Description</A></H4>
    <P>The <B>wlmset</B> command is used to customize WLM by setting global
    option flags altering the standard behavior of WLM:
    <UL>
    <LI>The <B>hardcpumax</B> flag determines whether the CPU maximum limits
    should be treated as "soft" limits; that is, they can be exceeded if
    there is no contention for the CPU resource, or as "hard" (absolute) limit
    should never be exceeded, even if no other class requests any CPU
    cycles.
    </LI><LI>The <B>shared</B> flag determines whether shared memory segments must
    be "charged" to the Shared class when they are accessed by processes in
    different classes, or remain into the class they were initially assign on the
    first page fault (the class of the process which first accessed the
    segment).
    </LI></UL>
    <P>The "standard" behavior when no options are set (when the <B>wlmset</B>
    command has not been used) is:
    <UL>
    <LI>CPU maximum limits are treated as soft limits.
    </LI><LI>A segment is classified to the Shared class the first time that a process
    belonging to a class different from that of the segment faults on one page of
    the segment.
    </LI></UL>
    <P>The fact that these options are global WLM flags means that they apply to
    all the classes when set. The <B>wlmset</B> command can be used
    whether or not WLM is active. For consistent results, it is recommended
    that the <B>wlmset</B> command be used to customize Workload Manager prior
    to starting it. Otherwise, in the case of the shared memory for
    instance, shared memory segments accessed by processes in different classes
    will go into the Shared class (and remain there) prior to the shared flag
    being set and the shared memory segments accessed by processes in different
    classes after the flag has been set will remain in their class of
    origin.
    <P>The customization of WLM is done by setting global flags in memory, and
    thus has to be done every time a system is rebooted. The best method,
    when using the same set of flags for each reboot, is to run the
    <B>wlmset</B> command from the <B>inittab</B> prior to starting
    WLM.
    <P>The <B>wlmset</B> command is restricted to the root user.
    <P><H4><A NAME="Header_102">Flags</A></H4>
    <P>The <B>-a</B> flag precedes a keyword indicating which option is to be
    set or reset. The valid keywords are:
    <DL>
    <P><DT><B>hardcpumax
    </B></DT><DD>Possible values are "yes" or "no". Yes indicates that the CPU
    maximum limits should be treated as absolute limits and should never be
    exceeded. No indicates that the CPU maximum limits should be treated as
    "soft" limits and can be exceeded if there is no contention for the CPU
    resource. No is the default when <B>wlmset</B> is not used or is
    used without specifying the <B>hardcpumax</B> keyword.
    </DD><P><DT><B>shared
    </B></DT><DD>Possible values are "yes" or "no". Yes indicates that shared memory
    segments should "migrate" to the Shared class when accessed (page fault) by a
    process belonging to a different class as that of the segment. This is
    the default when <B>wlmset</B> is not used or is used without specifying
    the shared keyword. No indicates that the segment should remain in the
    class it was first classified into, regardless of the class of the processes
    accessing it.
    </DD></DL>
    <P>This command is provided in AIX 4.3.3 to give AIX
    4.3.3 users early access to some of the features available in
    Workload Manager with AIX 5L.
    <P>AIX 5L supports both "hard" and "soft" maximum limits which can be set
    independently for all resource types managed by WLM, including CPU. AIX
    5L also provide a per-class attribute (localshm) to prevent shared memory
    segments to go into the Shared class on a per-class basis. It is
    expected that users of <B>wlmset</B> will modify their WLM configuration
    files to take full advantage of the corresponding AIX 5L features when they
    upgrade from AIX 4.3.3 to AIX 5L, and <B>wlmset</B> is not
    supported by AIX 5L.
    <P>This command comes with an AIX 4.3.3 service update and as
    such does not support localization. The error messages are in English
    only. The possible errors are as follows:
    <UL>
    <LI>The <B>wlmset</B> command is invoked by a non-root user.
    </LI><LI>Syntax errors, and in this case the command issues the "usage" string as
    it appears in the "Syntax" paragraph above.
    </LI><LI>Trying to run the command with a version of the AIX operating system that
    does not support the WLM global flags described above. This should not
    happen except in cases where AIX updates have been incorrectly
    installed.

    <P><H3><A NAME="Header_114" HREF="#MTOC_114">DCE/DFS Migration to AIX Version 4.3</A></H3>
    <P><B>Minimum Required Levels of DCE 2.1 on AIX
    4.3:</B> Some optional DCE 2.1 filesets must be
    installed at or later certain levels in order for DCE to be functional on AIX
    4.3. The filesets and minimum levels are as follows:
    <PRE>dce.client.dfs.rte 2.1.0.24
    dce.dfs_server.rte 2.1.0.21
    dce.dfsnfs.rte 2.1.0.11
    dce.edfs.rte 2.1.0.19
    </PRE>
    <P>These upgrades are necessary for the DCE Distributed File System to work on
    an AIX 4.3.2 or higher system. If DFS is started on an
    AIX 4.3.2 machine without these upgrades, the machine will
    experience network problems and may eventually crash.
    <P>For customers using the DCE Distributed File System (DFS) for AIX,
    migrating an existing AIX system to AIX 4.3 will automatically upgrade
    the following filesets if they exist on the system:
    <PRE>DCE Client Services dce.client.core.rte 2.1.0.26
    DCE Security Services dce.security.rte 2.1.0.24
    DCE DFS Client Services dce.client.dfs.rte 2.1.0.24
    DCE DFS Base Server dce.dfs_server.rte 2.1.0.21
    DCE Enhanced DFS dce.edfs.rte 2.1.0.19
    DCE NFS to DFS Authenticating Gateway dce.dfsnfs.rte
    </PRE>
    <P>If the automatic upgrades are not successful during the AIX 4.3
    migration installation, the AIX 4.3 system installation procedure will
    detect that the DCE filesets are not at the minimum required level for running
    on AIX 4.3. The installation procedure will move the existing
    <B>/etc/dce/rc.dce</B> file to
    <B>/etc/dce/rc.dce.downlevel</B> to prevent DCE/DFS from
    starting on the system.
    <P>If this occurs, apply the DCE PTFs from the AIX installation media, then
    reboot the system. The
    <B>/etc/dce/rc.dce.downlevel</B> file can then safely be
    moved back to <B>/etc/dce/rc.dce</B> and DCE/DFS started on the
    system.
    <P>If you install DCE filesets after installing AIX 4.3, be sure to
    install the required minimum levels prior to configuring DCE on the
    machine.
    <P>The DCE/DFS images on the AIX CD 1 media are not LPP images; they are
    DCE/DFS updates that will be applied on machines where DCE/DFS is currently
    installed and the customer is migrating to AIX 4.3. The AIX
    installation utilities may show them as possible installation images but you
    cannot install DCE/DFS from these images. You must install DCE from the
    media that DCE ships on and not the AIX CD 1 media.
    <P><B>Minimum Required Levels of DCE 2.2 on AIX
    4.3:</B> Some optional DCE 2.2 filesets must be
    installed at or above certain levels in order for DCE to be functional on AIX
    4.3.2. or higher. The filesets and minimum levels
    are:
    <PRE>dce.client.dfs.rte 2.2.0.2
    dce.dfs_server.rte 2.2.0.2
    dce.dfsnfs.rte 2.2.0.2
    dce.edfs.rte 2.2.0.2
    </PRE>
    <P>These upgrades are necessary for the DCE Distributed File System to work on
    an AIX 4.3 system. If DFS is started on an AIX 4.3
    machine without these upgrades, the machine may eventually crash.
    <P>For customers using the DCE Distributed File System (DFS) for AIX,
    migrating an existing AIX system to AIX 4.3 will automatically upgrade
    the following filesets if they exist on the system:
    <PRE>DCE Client Services dce.client.core.rte 2.2.0.2
    DCE Security Services dce.security.rte 2.2.0.2
    DCE DFS Client Services dce.client.dfs.rte 2.2.0.2
    DCE DFS Base Server dce.dfs_server.rte 2.2.0.2
    DCE Enhanced DFS dce.edfs.rte 2.2.0.2
    DCE NFS to DFS Authenticating Gateway dce.dfsnfs.rte 2.2.0.2
    </PRE>
    <P>Also, beginning with AIX Version 4.2.1, the DCE Distributed
    File System (DFS) for AIX no longer supports the use of the DFS fileset backup
    and restore utilities with JFS filesystems exported to DFS
    <P>The DFS backup and restore utilities are as follows:
    <UL>
    <LI>The <B>fts</B> commands (<B>fts dump</B>, <B>fts restore</B>)
    </LI><LI>The DFS Backup System (the <B>bak dump</B>, <B>bak
    restoredisk</B>, <B>bak restoreft</B>, and <B>bak
    restoreftfamily</B> commands)
    </LI></UL>
    <P>If you export JFS data to DFS from an AIX 4.2.1 or later
    system, the DFS commands to dump and restore this data will display the
    following message:
    <PRE>Error in &lt;dump|restore&gt;: The system call does not exist on this system
    </PRE>
    <P>This occurs even if you are running the DFS commands on earlier versions of
    AIX. The critical point is the level of the AIX system on the DFS File
    Server where the data is being exported to DFS.
    <P>Use standard AIX backup and restore utilities to back up JFS data that is
    exported to DFS.
