Operating Systems AIX Possible to connect a LPAR to two different VIO's? Post 302505067 by funksen on Wednesday 16th of March 2011 05:51:21 AM

if it's the same storage type that uses the same drivers, it's also possible to run two subsystems over the same fibre channel adapter
to make sure check out the documentation of your storage

of course the san zoning has to be adapted

if it's really the same storage with just two different arrays, just map the new luns to the existing vio server, map it to the lpar, mirror or migratepv the hdisks
