  • 1.  ezh or eezh on HMC

    Posted Wed October 18, 2023 04:25 PM

    Is anyone currently using ezh or eezh on their HMC? If so, what version and patch level are you on?  The most recent fix patch for V10 disables sed which ezh/eezh use.

    I'm using version 2.2. I sent you email last Friday In the attached .txt file there is version 2.3, where I removed all dependencies to sed

    Hello,

    You can get version 2.2. from Matthew Opokas GitHub page https://github.com/opokam/eezh 

    FWIW There is only one difference between 2.1 and 2.2 and that is "backuplpars" function that outputs commands to recreate all LPARs, in same fashion as lparclone does for a single LPAR.

    I didn't see any updates at Matthews GitHub page.

    I've attached two files to this post.

    The version 2.3 does not use sed at all and it has a number of white space changes.

    The version 2.2.1 that has been modifed just enought that it works, with the sed limitations imposed in certain HMC fixes.

    I've done more tests on the version 2.3, the 2.2.1 not so much.

    Your mileage may vary.

    The fix for the sed command is now available in the latest service pack for HMC.

    PTF MF71553 HMC V10 R3 M1051.0 - for 7063 Hardware or vHMC for PowerVM (5765-HMB)

    https://download4.boulder.ibm.com/sar/CMA/HMA/0c1ag/1/MF71553.readme.html

    -- Fixed an issue causing the sed command to fail when a command argument contains a dash.

    Unfortunately this is not the case in latest HMC version.

    username@hostname:~> lshmc -V
    "version= Version: 10
     Release: 3
     Service Pack: 1060
    HMC Build level 2406191052
    MF71690 - HMC V10R3 M1060
    MF71698 - iFix for HMC V10R3 M1060
    ","base_version=V10R3
    "
    username@hostname:~> echo foo|sed -e 's/foo/bar/'
    bash: -e s/foo/bar/: restricted: cannot specify command or options in command names
    username@hostname:~> echo foo|sed 's/foo/bar/'|sed 's/bar/baz/'
    baz
    username@hostname:~> which sed
    /usr/hmcrbin/sed
    username@hostname:~> head -1 /usr/hmcrbin/sed
    #!/bin/bash

    FWIW the above mentioned IBM RFE has 25 votes.
