  • 1.  stat command for AIX

    Posted Thu April 29, 2021 03:16 PM
    Hello AIX community,
    At my place our scripts across platform between AIX & Linux are failing, being stat command not available on AIX. 
    istat exist on AIX but it does not fulfil the requirements.

    istat example on AIX
    ==================================
    root@lpar59919:/usr/local/bin# istat getsacm
    Inode 48 on device 10/16 File

    root@lpar59919:/usr/local/bin#

    stat example on LINUX servers
    =============================
    [mafzal10@fmc103206 ~]$ stat -c %Y test
    1619702293
    [mafzal10@fmc103206 ~]$

    If stat command can be provided thru IBM toolbox , it will be great help.

    Thanks

    Consider using Perl's built in stat() function. It's trivial to call
    from a script.

    Hi, I think it is already available in the toolbox (in coreutils-8.32-1.ppc).

    # yum install stat
    ....blah....
    # stat -c %Y hello

    Opensource stat command is available from AIX toolbox. The command is part of coreutils rpm package.
