So, I'm assuming that VIO/IVM is installed and owns all the hardware and the other partitions a guests rather than hardware partitions. That's what I have too.
There may be an issue with running an IVM based on AIX 6 with guests of AIX 7. Are you able to get to the shell prompt?
you would be best checking with IBM about supported configurations. It may be that you need to upgrade the IVM first, which might have an impact on you running AIX 6.1 partition. At the least, it will reboot, but I would be more concerned about any co-requisite updates your partition will need.
I am posting this as an FYI. I burned a lot of time on digging for this solution. The problem was performance between newer AIX p series boxes and a sun 4500 with a fiber nic. I tried many misc. solutions but this turned out to fix the issue. My bandwidth benchmark went from around 20MB/sec to... (1 Reply)
I have a system model 505 p server. I am trying to virtualize my server. My network admin has given me 10 IP addresses (with the DNS already updated with names that map onto each ip). E.g.: IP1 maps to m1.lab, IP2 maps to m2.lab, etc
I have been following the redpaper "Integrated Virtualization... (0 Replies)

Hi everyone,
Sorry if this post is in the wrong place. I searched the forums for "IVM" and it turned up no results. Hopefully someone knows about this. My dilemma is that I have multiple IBM JS12 Express blades in our blade center, each running VIOS 2.1.0.10-FP-20.1 and hosting a couple LPARs. Out... (2 Replies)

I am facing problems in moving CD-ROM from one lpar to another.
CDROM can be seen on the POWERVM (IVM) server , but through the web-access if I move it ( assign it ) to LPAR it will be assigned. I run cfgmgr , and the cdrom does not show up in the LPAR. I firmly believe this is the reason why I... (2 Replies)

Hello,
I have some unclear about how VIOS uses its resources.
Assume that VIOS lpar has only 1 physical FC, and we use that to connect to the Lun. Then we install VIOS for the lpar on that Lun.
So my question is, afterward, we can still use that physical FC for the virtual FC we create... (3 Replies)

acorn-fdisk
FDISK(8) BSD System Manager's Manual FDISK(8)NAME
acorn-fdisk -- partition editor for Acorn/RISC OS machines
SYNOPSIS
acorn-fdisk -h | --help | -v | --version
acorn-fdisk [-t scheme | --type scheme] -l | --list [device ...]
acorn-fdisk [-t scheme | --type scheme] -s | --size partition
acorn-fdisk [-t scheme | --type scheme] [device]
DESCRIPTION
The acorn-fdisk utility allows one to display or interactively edit partition tables for Acorn/RISC OS machines in various formats. Using
the PC/BIOS format, standard IBM PC (i386) partition tables can also be accessed. When no optional device is given, it defaults to /dev/hda
or /dev/sda.
The options are as follows:
-h | --help Display a short usage and exit immediately.
-l | --list Display the partition table(s) of all devices.
-s | --size Display the size of partition.
-t | --type Select the partitioning scheme to use. Valid schemes are:
EESOX Eesox SCSI on the Acorn machines.
ICSIDEFS ICS IDE.
Filecore/Linux Linux on Filecore. This uses the non-ADFS descriptor to point to the start of the disc to be partitioned. The
first two sectors contain a partition table to identify the Linux partitions contained within.
PC/BIOS PC/BIOS partitioning scheme. This consists of a partition table in the first sector of the disk which contains
both CHS and LBA values for the partitions. There can be up to four entries in the primary partition table.
One of these can be an extended partition containing up to four extra partitions.
PowerTec PowerTec SCSI on the Acorn machines.
Filecore/RISCiX RiscIX on Filecore.
-v | --version
Display the version of acorn-fdisk and exit immediately.
If neither -l | --list or -s | --size are given, the partition table of the given device will be edited interactively.
EXAMPLES
Display the default device's partition table on a PC:
acorn-fdisk --type PC/BIOS -l
Display the PC partition table of /dev/sda:
acorn-fdisk --type PC/BIOS --list /dev/sda
Display the size in blocks of the partition /dev/sda1:
acorn-fdisk --type PC/BIOS --size /dev/sda1
Edit the MBR partition table interactively:
acorn-fdisk --type PC/BIOS
Display the partition table of an MBR backed up to a file:
acorn-fdisk -t PC/BIOS -l mbrdump.bin
Display the size of the first partition on a device where the MBR would be restored from the backup file mbrdump.bin:
acorn-fdisk -t PC/BIOS -s mbrdump.bin1
