Hello there,
lp-hea are the native adapters attached to the Balde itself (they are HEA, and each HEA has 4 Logical ports). We use them, say for the first installation or for servers where you don't want redundancy, they are SPOF (single point of failure) adapters.
Virtual adapters (l-lan), are created at VIOS/client level, we create them at VIO level to define the priority of VIOS and add multiple vlans to it. At client level we create those for it to communicate to outer world.
Physical cable are the actual cables from which the traffic goes in and out of the Blade, without the physical port your virtual adapter at VIO are of no use.
Now coming to SEA (shared ethernet adapter), to create a SEA you need a physical adapter, a virtual adapter (actually two, one with trunking priority, vlans (if you want) and other is called control channel adapter, ctrl chan adapter is the heart beat of SEA). Then the VIO create a new adapter called SEA, remember that SEA will not be visible from HMC, you can only see it when you are in VIO.
If you have SEA, it will be redundant and you can avoid SPOF.

asadmin-create-resource-adapter-config(1AS) User Commands asadmin-create-resource-adapter-config(1AS)
NAME
asadmin-create-resource-adapter-config, create-resource-adapter-config - creates the configuration information in
domain.xml for the connector module
SYNOPSIS
create-resource-adapter-config --user admin_user [--password admin_password] [--host localhost] [--port 4848] [--secure|-s] [--passwordfile
filename] [--terse=false] [--echo=false] [--interactive=true] [--threadpools threadpoolids] [--property name=value[:name=value]*] raname
Creates configuration information for the connector module. This command can be executed prior to deploying a resource adapter, so that the
configuration information is available at the time of deployment, or after deployment. If the resource adapter is created after deployment,
the resource adapter is started. You must first create a threadpool, using the create-threadpool command, and then identify that threadpool
value as the ID in the--threadpools option.
This command is supported in remote mode only.
OPTIONS
--user authorized domain application server administrative username.
--password password to administer the domain application server.
--host machine name where the domain application server is running.
--port port number of the domain application server listening for administration requests.
--secure if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the domain application server.
--passwordfile file containing the domain application server password.
--terse indicates that any output data must be very concise, typically avoiding human-friendly sentences and favoring well-
formatted data for consumption by a script. Default is false.
--echo setting to true will echo the command line statement on the standard output. Default is false.
--interactive if set to true (default), only the required password options are prompted.
--threadpool the threadpool ID from which the work manager gets the thread.
--property configuration properties of the resource adapter java bean.
OPERANDS
raname the value kept in the resource-adapter-name in the domain.xml file.
