Hello, hopefully someone can help me out with this, I have created a virtual Ethernet adapter on the VIO but would like to add it to my new LPAR.
On my VIO only my disk is mapped.
For the sake of clarity does this concern an Ethernet adapter or a disk VHOST, very important. Once you have answered that question we might be able to help you.

I found on linuxgazette.net/93/bhaskaran.html page very useful sample of virtual driver (not connected to real hardware).
I try to compile it with no effect.
So:
I got fresh Ubuntu 9.10 (kernel 2.6.31-14)
My source is saved in networkAdapter.c file in /usr/src/myModules directory.

I just wondering if there are ways to open multiple virtual terminal to a single LPAR.
After I have use putty to login to the VIOS. I will use mkvt -id <LPAR id> to open console but if my friend want to open 2 second one, it will say, VT already connected.
IS there a way to work this around ? ... (1 Reply)

I am trying allocate an IVE to an LPAR (not a VIO) running AIX 7.1. I am getting the error:
HSCL068A
Explanation
Logical port can not be assigned to Logical Partition because this Logical Partition is not the promiscuous LPAR for the physical port.
Has anyone encountered this... (1 Reply)
Hi,

Hello,
Is there a way to run
xclock
or
startx
on LPAR, since LPAR doesn't have any console or it is connected to HMC
usually the way is to export the display to some PC which has Xmanager running on it, but in my case, I want to run xmanager on the AIX Lpar and run on it the... (2 Replies)

xna(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual xna(4)Name
xna - DEBNI and DEMNA Ethernet interfaces
Syntax
device xna0 at vaxbi? node? vector xnaintr (DEBNI)
device xna0 at xmi? node? vector xnaintr (DEMNA)
Description
The driver provides access to a 10 Mbytes Ethernet network through the DEBNI and DEMNA adapters. The DEBNI is an Ethernet to BI bus. The
DEMNA is an Ethernet to XMI adapter.
The host's Internet address is specified at boot time with an SIOCSIFADDR ioctl. The driver employs the Address Resolution Protocol, as
described in to map dynamically between Internet and Ethernet addresses on the local network.
The driver normally tries to use a trailer encapsulation to minimize copying data on input and output. This can be disabled for an inter-
face by setting the IFF_NOTRAILERS flag with an SIOCSIFFLAGS ioctl. Trailers are used only for packets destined for Internet hosts.
The SIOCSPHYSADDR ioctl can be used to change the physical address of the adapter and SIOCRPHYSADDR can be used to read its physical
address. SIOCADDMULTI and SIOCDELMULTI can be used to add or delete multicast addresses. The driver supports a maximum of 12 multicast
addresses. The argument to the latter ioctls is a pointer to an ``ifreq'' structure found in
SIOCRDCTRS and SIOCRDZCTRS ioctls can be used to read or read and clear network counters. The argument to the latter two ioctls is a
pointer to a counter structure ``ctrreq'' found in
The ioctls SIOCENABLBACK and SIOCDISABLBACK can be used to enable and disable the interface loopback mode.
Restrictions
The PUP protocol family is not supported.
Diagnostics
xna%d: port self-test failed:<register list>
Adapter did not pass the power-up self-test during autoconfiguration time. The port attachment fails.
xna%d: couldn't allocate...
The driver was unable to allocate memory for adapter data structures. The port attachment fails.
xna%d: port probe failed:<register list>
The driver was unable to bring the adapter into the initialized state. The port attachment fails.
xna%d: port init failed:<register list>
The driver failed to prepare the adapter for runtime use.
xna%d: port state changed, resetting:<register list>
The adapter issued a port state change interrupt. The port state is reset.
xna%d: port reset failed
The driver was unable to bring the adapter into the initialized state during a port reset.
xna%d: command failed, error code:<error code>
The adapter port command failed. The error code gives reason for failure.
xna%d: couldn't handle af%d
A packet with an undefined protocol type has been sent to the adapter.
xna%d: addmulti failed, multicast list full
Too many multicast requests have been made.
