Re: red hat needs kernel updates once a month, how does aix get around that?



It does.  In the past ML's came out 3-4 times a year.  Their new strategy is twice a year, but, it hasn't taken hold yet.

Subject: red hat needs kernel updates once a month, how does aix get around that?

My Red Hat ES3 Server needs kernel updates about once a month, meaning an ipl, what a bummer!

 

Sure nice to have AIX, where an ML comes out about once every 9 months.

 

During my AIX ML updates, I never see anything in any logs saying something like,  “kernel updated”.

 

How does AIX update its kernel, or does it?

 

TIA.
