Need package download for AIX 7.3

shadabsayeed

I do not have linux toolbox or yum or dnf installed as we do not have linux in our environment . I need the packages for AIX 7.3 so that i can install lpar2rrd on this server as lpar2rrd server and reports can be collected through HMC CLI . Issue is i do not see rrdtool for AIX 7.3 and hence i am getting failed packages in rpm installation . Please help

Pavel

The YUM or DNF will work if I have a repo server . I do not have one . so how would it install/update the packages ?

Pavel

you do not need to have a repo server, only in case you have no access to the internet to get packages from ibm site

root@a$&*&^YU^> yum update all

There was a problem importing one of the Python modules

required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

  No module named rpm

Please install a package which provides this module, or

verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the

current version of Python, which is:

2.7.10 (default, Jun 22 2016, 05:57:59) [C]

If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to

the yum faq at:

  http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq

What to do for the below error then ?

Pavel

install this as per our docu, use yum or dnf , no issue for us

yum install httpd rrdtool rrdtool-perl

If that does not work then contact IBM AIX support,

sorry, AIX is not our product, we are not able to support it

shadabsayeed

Yeah we do not have internet access to external vendor .

Pavel

then create internal repo, I am not aware how to do it but there must be some way, check Internet, ask IBM support ... it is all about AIX and support tools, it has nothing with our product, got no idea how to help,

Put into google: aix linux toolbox repository local

then select 1st or 2nd or 3rd or 4th link, I believe all explain you ho to create local repository, is it anyhow complicated? I do not think so although I have never tried that, at least I see 4 way where to get a procedure, follow one of them might be all are same, I do not know ...

Pavel

if you pay for AIX support use AIX support, the easiest way for you I expect, they will explain you what needs to be done to have locat repository, they have to as they are paid for that
