Hi
Well i don't think having two HBA with the correspondent software to do load balancing as well as failover is a bad thing. In fact is one of the best practices you can use to set a very secure and fast system.
it's all about the storage subsystem you have. IBM FastT (or DS4x) line has the RDAC driver that's not help too much in load balancing (you do the load balancing at Storage Manager level) but does a good job in failover. IBM DS8x series uses SDD (and SDDPCM) and they do load balancing and failover. SDD comes from the old days of the Shark systems and works ok.
EMC2 uses Powerpath, a very mature SW. HP uses AutoPath, not a very good SW.
Hope this helps

Hi,
It's my first time I will use a 4BG fiber with two ports on one card. I used only one port 2GB before.
What will be the drivers I need to install on my AIX5.3? Is the two ports going to be just one line? Or I can use the other ports on another connection.
Thanks in advance,

Could you provide me any solution?

Hi,
We have a P595 machine with a dual port Fiber card per VIOs.
We have two VIOs in the box.
VIO1: ---> 2 port Fiber Card
VIO2: ---> 2 port Fiber Card
One port on each fiber card is utilized. Connected to SAN switches. We are getting all disks from SAN both for VIOs and LPARs.

cmtk-fibxform
fibxform(1) The Computational Morphometry Toolkit fibxform(1)
NAME
fibxform - Apply coordinate transformations to point coordinates in .fib file.
SYNOPSIS
fibxform XformList
DESCRIPTION
A file with fiber tracking results from the UNC Fiber Tracking tool is read from Standard Input and one or more (concatenated) coordinate
transformations are applied to all fiber point coordinates. The result is written to Standard Output, again in UNC fiber file format.
OPTIONS
Global Toolkit Options (these are shared by all CMTK tools)
--help
Write list of basic command line options to standard output.
--help-all
Write complete list of basic and advanced command line options to standard output.
--wiki
Write list of command line options to standard output in MediaWiki markup.
--man
Write man page source in 'nroff' markup to standard output.
--version
Write toolkit version to standard output.
--echo
Write the current command line to standard output.
--verbose-level <integer>
Set verbosity level.
--verbose, -v
Increment verbosity level by 1 (deprecated; supported for backward compatibility).
--threads <integer>
Set maximum number of parallel threads (for POSIX threads and OpenMP).
Main Options
--inversion-tolerance <double>
Numerical tolerance of B-spline inversion in mm. Smaller values will lead to more accurate inversion, but may increase failure rate.
[Default: 0.001]
--source-image <image-path>
Set source image of the transformation (i.e., an image defining the space in which fiber tracking was performed) to correct for dif-
ferences in orientation and coordinate space. [Default: NONE]
--target-image <image-path>
Set target image of the transformation (i.e., the image that the fiber track points are mapped into) to correct for differences in
orientation and coordinate space. [Default: NONE]
