RE: [U2] converting universe files between aix/linux
you are correct I am going from a RS6000 to a intel linux system thanks everyone! dougc -Original Message- From: owner-u2-us...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:owner-u2-us...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Anthony Youngman Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2009 5:27 AM To: 'u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org' Subject: RE: [U2] converting universe files between aix/linux Everybody's been jumping in saying what the tool is. What they haven't said is do you need it because it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with a port from AIX to linux, and everything to do with the hardware. I presume you're going from RS/6000 (or similar) to Intel? In that case you do need the tool, but forget about the O/S, check (as I are think you are doing) the endian-ness of the processor. That's all that's relevant. If you were running AIX and linux on the same hardware you (probably) wouldn't need it (you can get hardware which is soft-switchable between big and little endian :-).

Sounds like you need a tool developed on the sub-continent! =8^D - Original Message - I am attempting to make a QA virtual universe system and I think I am going to have a big Indian/little Indian issue --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Hi Doug, The tool you are looking for is format.conv and it runs from the Linux command line. You can find it documented in the UniVerse System Administation manual.
