  • 1.  FR: IBM please ship a single rsync LPP package on the expansion pack

    Posted 13 days ago

    IBM already includes lsof, rsyslogd, and other singular third party software packages on the expansion pack.

    Rsync has become a huge problem to obtain for EPIC customers without committing to the entire DNF AIX Toolkit disaster distribution. I just posted a sample where rsync alone requires 44 packages to be installed.

    That's a huge increase in our software footprint to perform CVE tracking on, for a single utility.

    Please IBM, ship a signed rsync LPP on the expansion pack in AIX 7.3. Or consider placing one on MRS with the other out of band updates.

    Thanks.
