    Hi,

    I have remove the alias using ifconfig command, But when ever we are taking reboot of Server it's appearing again. Could anyone suggest how to remove this IP alias permanently from database.

    I think if you remove the alias ip through smit , then it will be a permanent change.

    The following command will remove it permanently:

    chdev -l {interface} -a delalias4={IP Address},{Subnet Mask}

    ifconfig only removes it til the next reboot.
