Hi Rob,

Its Dale form Omnix here - I know someone who might be able to get the job
done for you and he may be free (as in have no work) for a few days - His
name is Neil Wells and I'm not sure if Mark knows him or not. We are using
him currently for some contract work on an AIX machine with an oracle DB.
I'm not sure if he can do the job but you could give him a call. Call me
tomorrow at work and I will give you his number.

Regards

Dale

The box says "Requires windows 98 or better"......So I installed Linux....

> Hi guys.  Our company has need of a SCO guru in Brisbane for a short job.

> One of your clients has a Compaq server running SCO Openserver 5.  The

> problems -ie , it may fail in the future.  Our client would like a new
> disk to be installed.  The drives are hot swapable and I have the disk in
> the system.

> All system drives are attached to a raid controller (IDA) but the root
> filesystem is not mirrored (not an issue right now - maybe this will be
> fixed later).
>
> Anyway, I'm after someone who can setup the new drive so it contains the
> root filesystem and is bootable.  Originally I considered using dd to do

> I'm used to (Linux & Solaris) that I'd rather not mess with a production
> server, hence our need for a SCO guru.  No time to build a test rig and
> play around, we need to get the job done.

> Could anyone interested reply by mail (this is actually my home address
> but I have access to it from work) or call me at work on 3721-4100 and
> ask to speak to Rob.  We can then discuss rates, timeframe, etc.
>
> This is rather urgent - I'd like to get this completed within the next few
> days, as the client is keen to have this concluded.
