APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • During mksysb restore one may receive this error:

    "cannot create /var/adm/ras/bi.log"

That's because some files on var/adm are encrypted.

Defect 837171 is included in instfix.i, but using -i in
efsenable still gets illegal option:

+ /usr/sbin/efsenable -a -i
/usr/sbin/efsenable: illegal option -- i

That's because 'i' is not included in
getopt(argc, argv, "vk:f:m:u:e:d:paq?").
