Nothing to worry about. Enjoy your day. Skip down to the free Coffee Time Quiz at the end of this post if you've got nothing else * to do.LONG ANSWER (verbose mode is on)The cfgmgr command configures new devices into the operating system. It is run during the system boot, but it's also something you can run when you add a new device to an LPAR and want it recognised without rebooting. A new device doesn't have to be physically dedicated to the LPAR as a dedicated adapter might be. It may be a new LUN or virtual scsi disk or even a virtual optical device from our old friend the VIO server Virtual Media Library.No news is good news ... usuallyBy default, the cfgmgr command will not display standard output - just the errors get reported. So in typically succinct Unix mode, if there is no output, everything works fine. (That might happen if you get a nice clean system by running rm -r). If you want to run cfgmgr and see the details scroll off the screen at high speed, use cfgmgr -v (verbose mode). You could also limit your cfgmgr to a single adapter (e.g. cfgmgr -l vscsi0), although that won't save you much time if you don't have physical adapters assigned to the operating system you're running it on. In the olden days, the config manager command (cfgmgr) would take maybe 3 minutes each time you ran it a

Run IOS commands as root According to IBM you should never work as root on VIO servers. However, if you login as user padmin and type oem_setup_env you get the root credentials (without even been asked for a password). By default the ioscli commands are not available for the root user. All ioscli commands are in fact calls of /usr/ios/cli/ioscli with the command as argument. You see this if you list the aliases of the padmin user. Knowing this you can use all ioscli commands as user root by appending /usr/ios/cli/ioscli. Instead of »lsmap -all« you would type root@vios# /usr/ios/cli/ioscli lsmap -all If you set an alias alias i=/usr/ios/cli/ioscli you could even type root@vios# i lsmap -all 2.
