I'm new to the AIX world and found the following problem. (I am running AIX 2.2 (not 2.2.1 yet .. it should be arriving soon) on an RT 6151-115) I created a minidisk (1000 blocks long) in the standalone shell. Then i rebooted the system, and tried removing the minidisk using the regular shell. Unfortunately, the minidisk had no device (ie /dev/hd8 ) associated with it, or entry (ie. stanza) in /etc/filesystems. A Therefore I was unable to mount it or delete it using the 'minidisk' command. I was able to delete it using the maintenance diskette, though, because it doesn't use the device name, but a line number to identify every diskette. Anyone else ever run across this? Also, I am responsible for system security. Any known holes??
