Wow, @LANSA continues to publish articles with "interesting" content. What do you say @aklyachkin about this on #ibmiaix lansa.com/blog/app-devel…

Went to go share something on my phone and this Technological Superhero popped up. @power_gaz #NerdHerd #HMC #PowerVC #IBMChampion #FinTech #AIX #VIOS #PowerVM #Power10 #IBMi #IBMCloud #VUG #Linux #Unix #RHEL

It is hard to believe I was first named an IBM Champion in October 2011. robmcnelly.com/proud-to-be-a-…

(Gen X only) Sound on and close your eyes

The more experienced and knowledgeable I get in a technical topic, the harder it is to state a single definitive answer to a question. Sure the answer may be "Yes" 99.9% of the time, but I've seen the other 0.1 % so how can I possibly say "Yes"?

Today, I have been working at #IBM for 30 years! Started by helping a #nmon newbie in Japan=always a pleasure. Here are my hints nmon Man page ibm.com/docs/en/aix/7.… nmon starter: youtube.com/watch?v=jH7Tnn… nmon adv: youtube.com/watch?v=OrZdL7… New nmon is njmon nmon.sourceforge.net/pmwiki.php?n=S…

Updating older Power servers! What is your focus? Whatever you need, answer=Power10 Need lower cost or #rPerf/#CPW headroom or "bangs per €$£" Top end #POWER6 p570 ->Midrange #POWER8 E850 -->ScaleOut #Power10 #S1024 + #sustainable=less Watts See ibm.biz/PowerVUG Aug 31st

Shout-out to everyone on-call, but still trying to have a "normal" weekend:

When working with Power10 E1080, take note of new CEC/node slot naming convention. The PCIe slots are numbered from P0-C0 - P0-C7. Not "P1-C1-xx, etc", as you would've observed on POWER9 & earlier systems. E1080 example shown. EMX0 slot locations are unchanged. #AIX #Power10

New post: Finding out the actual value of num_cmd_elems of a Fiber Channel adapter using kdb on AIX...in 2022. ibm.biz/BdPiZx #AIX #IBMAIX

Why do people speak a lot about #Linux, #Windows and not #IBMAIX and #IBMPower? The answer came 1968 - "A computer system which is functioning normally is not newsworthy". Computer Center Bulletin of University of Queensland, 1968. #IBMChampion

Newly updated #rperf script for estimating your rperf rating of an AIX LPAR / virtual machine. Now includes the #Power10 Enterprise #E1050 and the Scale-out #S1024, #S1014, #S1022 & #S1022s Download a fresh copy from from ibm.com/support/pages/… #PowerSystems #IBMAIX #AIX

In the S1022 , you are getting about 25 rPerfs per core in a 2U pizza box ( total 1004 rPerfs) , that 3 CEC 770 was about 450-ish rPerfs in 14 Us. #NerdHerd #HMC #PowerVC #IBMChampion #FinTech #AIX #Power10 #IBMi #IBMCloud #VUG #Linux #Unix #RHEL
