I am currently trying to run the ByteUnix benchmarks (v2.1) here at Cal Poly on a brand new AIX configuration, and I have been having some problems. Our configuration consists of 10 PS/2's front-ending a 3090. My first problem is that I don't really know if the compiler options for the type of system should be set to SysV or BSD? Does anyone have any suggestions? Also, on the filesystem throughput test, I keep getting 'write in copy' or 'I/O errors'. Has anyone else experienced this while running the benchmark? One last thing - I am also getting a 'message queue locked' error when trying to run the data base test. Ideas? I should mention that all of these problems have been occuring only on the PS/2's, I haven't attemped to compile the benchmarks on the 3090 yet. Any ideas, comments, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -<<HM>> -- Guy Martin (Hackman) // Internet: gmartin@polyslo.calpoly.edu --------------------- // Fubarnet: hackman@fubarsys.slo.ca.us I don't need GOD, all \\ // AIX: gmartin@athena.calpoly.edu I need is an ---------> \X/ UUCP: ucbvax!voder!polyslo!gmartin

Since we don't have AIX for the PS/2 I've never run the Byte benchmarks on
them, but when I ran it on the POWERstation 320 I used the SysV mode for
compiling all the programs. Most of the benchmarks worked without any problems
so I don't know exactly what might be causing you trouble. The only problems
I had were with getting the scripts to run , and those troubles were due to
the early pre-release versions of AIX 3.1.
I would be very interested in seeing the complete report when you get the
benchmarks running.
