Unfortunately I haven't messed with Partition Mobility, we don't have the $$ for the license, maybe in next year's budget.
MPIO is what you want to use for multiple VIO redundancy. Here's a quick overview:
1 - Setup 2 VIOs and assign the same SAN drives to each system.
2 - Then on both VIOs you change the hdisk attribute 'reserve_policy' to be 'no_reserve' 3 - Assign the hdisk to the LPAR (do on each VIO)-Step 2 is what allows the hdisk to be assigned to the same LPAR from each VIO
4 - Run 'cfgmgr' on the LPAR to detect the drive(s)
5 - Run 'lspath' to verify that the LPAR sees the hdisk from each VIO
6 - Test by rebooting/shutdown one of the VIO servers.
For more detailed info you should download or order the IBM Redbook "PowerVM Virtualization on IBM System p: Introduction and Configuration" (sg24-7490-03)
IBM Redbooks | PowerVM Virtualization on IBM System p: Introduction and Configuration Fourth Edition
And the Best Practices book too:

the file containing the whole license will be in "/usr/share/common-licenses/" directory.
LOOKING UP LICENSE CLASSES
If you have an entry in a META.yml or META.json file, or similar metadata, and want to look up the Software::License class to use, there
are useful tools in Software::LicenseUtils.
