we use the same configuration,

mpio sddpcm, two vio-server for non-hacmp, two for hacmp systems

p570 Power 6 (9117-MMA) here for this example

oracle 10g with ocr and asm, oracle 10g on jfs2, many db2 v9.1 on jfs2 with SAP, a lot of java applikations, which are always candidates for damaging filesystems, and no problems

I can't tell you whats wrong on your systems, but I can tell you our settings:

Code:

vio-server:
:/home/padmin-->lsdev -Ccadapter | grep fc

if you need more information, feel free to ask ^^

I would run

Code:

filemon -O lf,lv,pv

to trace read/write errors and files accessed

tracefile will be very big!
