It seems it was  impossible for a long time to find an installp-experienced engineer outside IBM. rpm on the other hand has been freely available for years. For scripty type stuff there should be no special considerations for AIX so the large body of experience, knowledge and example code available for rpm on Linux is very helpful.

IBM is not dropping AIX anytime soon, but at the same time they are actively porting the standard linux tools to AIX and some of the AIX tools to Linux so the environments are converging. This might mean that its only a matter of time before installp become “depreciated” in favor of rpm.

It is recommended to set it to RemoteSigned. This would mean that all remote scripts must be signed or PowerShell will refuse to execute them. To change the execution policy:

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

If you’re uncertain what your execution policy setting is, type :

Get-ExecutionPolicy

For reference – these are all supported policy types:

  • Restricted
    No scripts can run.
  • AllSigned
    Ps1 and .Ps1xml files must be digitally signed.
  • RemoteSigned
    Ps1 and .Ps1xml files from the internet must be digitally signed.
  • Unrestricted
    No digital signatures are required and all scripts can be executed.
