The Command chrctcp
On AIX, the System Resource Controller (SRC) is used to control subsystems and subservers. Every AIX administrator is surely familiar with the lssrc, startsrc and stopsrc commands. The chrctcp command, which is used to manage subsystems that are started via /etc/rc.tcpip, is not quite as well known. By using this command, editing the start script /etc/rc.tcpip can be avoided. Most administrators only know and use the “-a” (add/activate), “-d” (delete/deactivate) and “-S” (start, stop or restart subsystem) options. However, the chrctcp command offers even more functionality via the options “-c” (change) and “-s” (show), which SMIT also uses. (After all, chrctcp was probably written specifically for use by SMIT.)
