IBM provides a RPM file named "lsvpd" specifically for Linux on Power boxes. Included in this RPM file is the "lscfg" command. After you have it installed, you can run it to see the location information you were asking about:
This RPM, and many others, are referenced in the "IBM PowerVM Virtualization Manageing and Monitoring" Redbook on page 274 (Section 6.3 Dynamc LPAR operations on Linux for Power). It is a good read. This is the URL for the Redbook: IBM Redbooks | IBM PowerVM Virtualization Managing and Monitoring
Hi,
I define 2 new LV on the vio server and run a cfgmgr on the partition and see my 2 new hdisk (hdisk6 and hdisk7).
I extend my vg vg000 (on the partition) and add the 2 hdisks.
I had a filesystem on the vg000 and when I added the disk I would like to increase the filesystem. But I cannot do a... (0 Replies)
Can you have a Dynamic LPAR without VIO and if yes is there a benefit to having both? I am attempting to implement VIO and Resource pooling at my company and want to understand the limitations.
Also, I have been told the managing and allocation of the Logical Volumes is a time consuming task as... (0 Replies)
We have a frame the uses 2 vios that assign disk storage to LPAR's. We have a LPAr with multiple disk and I want to know how do I tell which vio is serving the disk. For example the LPAr has hdisk 0, 1, 2, 3 all the same size. I want to know which vio is serving hdisk0, 1. (4 Replies)
Hi,
I was looking on Google for AIX-VIO/LPAR with ISCSI solution and found following really nice tutorial about how to setup ISCSI with free NAS.

I am wondering if there is a command I can run from **with-in** LPAR server (server01) to find out the hostname or IP address or other parameters for VIO server in charge of server01? (1 Reply)
Just a question which may seem dumb to some out there, but then again I am not a super technie so that's my excuse.
Is it possible to say provision a test AIX LPAR (has a 10gb boot lun and 20gb data) under a VIO which has connectivity to SAN Array A so it can see the disks provisioned to it,... (2 Replies)
Hi All,
I've been trying to create a new LPAR for some days now but I can't get the VIO server to recognize the new LPAR. This is what I did:
On HMC create new LPAR
On HMC create new virtual scsi adapter for LPAR in VIO profile
On HMC add new virtual scsi adapter for LPAR with DLPAR... (6 Replies)
:wall::wall::wall:
1. I have created an LPAR in the HMC.
2. I have allocated the storage from an Hitachi AMS2500 and assigned it to the host group.
3. I have zoned the LPAR and Storage on a Brocade 5100. (The zone sees the AMS)
Next I activated the LPAR in the HMC, SMS mode for the mksysb... (3 Replies)
Hi Guys,
I have fresh new installed VIO 2.2.3.70 on a p710, 3 physical SAS disks, rootvg on hdisk0
and 3 VIO clients through vscsi, AIX7.1tl4 AIX6.1tl9 RHEL6.5ppc, each lpar has its rootvg installed on a LV on datavg (hdisk2) mapped to vhost0,1,2
There is no vg on hdisk1, I use it for my... (1 Reply)

rpm2cpio(1) User Commands rpm2cpio(1)NAME
rpm2cpio - convert Red Hat Package (RPM) to cpio archive
SYNOPSIS
rpm2cpio [file.rpm]
DESCRIPTION
The rpm2cpio utility converts the .rpm file specified as its sole argument to a cpio archive on standard output. (See NOTES.) If no argu-
ment is given, an rpm stream is read from standard input. In both cases, rpm2cpio will fail and print a usage message if the standard out-
put is a terminal. Therefore, the output is usually redirected to a file or piped through the cpio(1) utility.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Converting an rpm file
example% rpm2cpio Device3Dfx-1.1-2.src.rpm | cpio -itv
