I feel like I must be doing something stupid here but …
 
We’re trying to install GPFS onto some Power 9 AI systems we’ve just got…
 
So from Fix central, we download 
“Spectrum_Scale_Data_Management-5.0.1.1-ppc64LE-Linux-install”, however we 
are failing to unpack the file:
 
./Spectrum_Scale_Data_Management-5.0.1.1-ppc64LE-Linux-install --dir 
5.0.1.1 --text-only
 
Extracting License Acceptance Process Tool to 5.0.1.1 ...
tail -n +620 
./Spectrum_Scale_Data_Management-5.0.1.1-ppc64LE-Linux-install | tar -C 
5.0.1.1 -xvz --exclude=installer --exclude=*_rpms --exclude=*rpm 
--exclude=*tgz --exclude=*deb 1> /dev/null
 
Installing JRE ...
 
If directory 5.0.1.1 has been created or was previously created during 
another extraction,
.rpm, .deb, and repository related files in it (if there were) will be 
removed to avoid conflicts with the ones being extracted.
 
tail -n +620 
./Spectrum_Scale_Data_Management-5.0.1.1-ppc64LE-Linux-install | tar -C 
5.0.1.1 --wildcards -xvz  ibm-java*tgz 1> /dev/null
tar -C 5.0.1.1/ -xzf 5.0.1.1/ibm-java*tgz
 
Invoking License Acceptance Process Tool ...
5.0.1.1/ibm-java-ppc64le-80/jre/bin/java -cp 5.0.1.1/LAP_HOME/LAPApp.jar 
com.ibm.lex.lapapp.LAP -l 5.0.1.1/LA_HOME -m 5.0.1.1 -s 5.0.1.1 -text_only
Unhandled exception
Type=Segmentation error vmState=0xffffffff
J9Generic_Signal_Number=00000004 Signal_Number=0000000b 
Error_Value=00000000 Signal_Code=00000001

R7=00007FFFAC12A3C0
 
 
This looks like the java runtime is failing during the license approval 
status.
 
First off, can someone confirm that 
“Spectrum_Scale_Data_Management-5.0.1.1-ppc64LE-Linux-install” is indeed 
the correct package we are downloading for Power9, and then any tips on 
how to extract the packages.
 
These systems are running the IBM factory shipped install of RedHat 7.5.
 
Thanks
 
Simon
