Inherited VIO server an LPARs

That would be wonderful if there was an easy conversion path away from a single VIO server. I have what I have been given.
Should I be looking to unmirror the VIO rootvg, release the disk and then find a way to create another LPAR with dedicated access to the now spare disk? I'm afraid there has been no training and very lttle documentation on VIO.
I have a sinking feeling that you are going to tell me that there should be 2 VIO servers as hardware items segragated from the LPARs somehow. I'[ve tried the IBM website but it's either nothing or Ijust get swamped. I'm obviously not phrasing the search very well.
Given I have one p520 and four internal disks, what am I looking at?
Help!
Apologies if I'm being stupid and missing something obvious.

GEMS-CLIENT(1) gems documentation GEMS-CLIENT(1) NAME
gems-client - Show data transmitted by gems-server (1) SYNOPSIS
gems-client [-i] host [port] gems-client -h | -v DESCRIPTION
Connects to a computer running gems-server(1) to show in the local terminal the data transmitted, in real time. OPTIONS
host Hostname or IP address where the server is running. port TCP port used by the server. Default: 6666. -i Ignore server terminal size. If this option is not supplied, gems-client disconnects itself whenever the local terminal is smaller than the terminal associated to the server. -h Show a short help message. -v Show version information. FUNCTION KEYS
While gems-client is running, some keys have special functions: q Quit. a Enable/disable alarm blocking. When active, if the server transmits an alarm character ('a'), the client ignores it, so the alarm does not play. This is specially useful when many clients are present in the same room, to avoid the annoying simultaneous beeps. AUTHORS
