Nah, I haven't seen any pronouncements of the death of AIX in the last 
couple of years.  At the minimum, it will continue on like OS/400 or the 
other legacy IBM OSes (i.e. no new features, but supported for decades). 
I expect AIX will still have support when I retire in 20 years.


That said, AIX admins are rare, and will become and endangered species 
soon. Particularly, anyone under 40 at this time. I'd be willing to bet 
that there aren't more than 100 people world-wide born after 1980 who 
could actually lay claim to being a serious AIX admin.


It's actually one of the big problems with legacy OSes - not that you 
can't get support, but that there is no talent left in the marketplace 
to talk to support.  :-)

Looks to me like it's probably not there any more.

http://src.opensolaris.org/source/search?q=&dfs=&refs=tcp_fusion_rcv_unread_min&path=&hist=&project=%2Fonnv

Further, the following blog entry seems to say that it isn't, for OpenSolaris:

http://blogs.sun.com/stw/entry/tcp_fusion_and_improved_loopback

(presumably it isn't needed any more and just does the right thing 
automatically)

2010-10-29 Thread Debabrata Debroy
Hi, what happened to the   TCP fusion tunables in Latest OpenSolaris? The 
variable I can find via mdb on Solaris 10, tcp_fusion_rcv_unread_min.Are these 
parameter are still available in Latest Solaris .Did the counter of outstanding 
writes without a read get removed.

So does it it means it is same as using 
tcp_fusion_rcv_unread_min=0

Or the variable is not at all using in Latest Solaris .Please confirm
