Hi All,
Besides the licenses on VIO and LPAR. What's the main difference with the two? I have installed VIO, my manager told me so, because it's like a free hypervisor but I never installed LPAR before. How do you install it? And if you can give more info on the two, that would be great.

NAME
fcinfo - Fibre Channel HBA Port Command Line Interface
SYNOPSIS
fcinfo hba-port [-l] [HBA_port_WWN...]
fcinfo remote-port [-ls] [-p HBA_port_WWN] [REMOTE_port_WWN...]
fcinfo [-V]
fcinfo [-?]
fcinfo is a command line interface that collects administrative information on fibre channel host bus adapter (HBA) ports on a host. It
also collects data on any fibre channel targets that may be connected to those ports in a Storage Area Network (SAN).
SUBCOMMANDS
The following subcommands are supported:
hba-port
Lists information for the HBA port referenced by the specified HBA_port_WWN. If HBA_port_WWN is not specified, all fibre channel HBA
ports on the host will be listed.
remote-port
Lists the remote-port information for those remote ports that are specified. If no REMOTE_port_WWN is specified, all remote ports that
are visible through HBA_port_WWN are listed.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-l, --linkstat
Lists the link error statistics information for the port referenced by the specified HBA_port_WWN or REMOTE_port_WWN.
-p HBA_port_WWN, --port HBA_port_WWN
Retrieve remote port information from the HBA_port_WWN of the local HBA port on the host. The -p option can only be used with the
remote-port subcommand and is a mandatory option.
-s, --scsi-target
Lists the SCSI target information for all remote ports the user has asked for. The -p, --port option must always be specified and must
be a valid HBA port on the host. This HBA port will be used as the initiator for which to retrieve the SCSI level target information.
Note that this will only function on remote port fibre channel World-Wide Names that support an FC4 type of SCSI.
-V, --version
Prints the version information.
-?, --help
Prints the usage information.
