Yes indeed, you are correct.
But, again there are few things you have to consider before creating SEA, you mentioned that these are Blade Servers, so how are you viewing them, through HMC or IVM? How many VIOS you have on each Blade?
If you have only one VIO on each blade, then SEA holds no good, coz it won't failover. If you have two VIOS, then only you are good to go for SEA.
Now, considering you have two VIOS, we have to figure out which virtual adapter (out of the 4) is your primary adapter and which is control channel adapter. You can check the profile (of virtual adapter) if a adapter has been check as access external network, and given a trunking priority then it is your primary adapter, for control channel adapter you WONT select access external network, and most shops give it a vlan no of 99 (purely environment based, so such standard), so as to distinguish control channel adapter from others.
You cannot use smitty (in rksh), you have to use mkdev command to create SEA.
$ mkvdev -sea "real adapt" -vadapter "primary virt adapt" -default "primary virt adapt" -defaultid "PVID" -attr ha_mode=auto ctrl_chan="control channel adapt"
Hope this helps.
Yes this is IBM Blades.
- I am using IVM.
- Just one VIO is installed.
So in that case having just one VIOs which is the option for high availability when one physical NIC fails?

Hi
I have 4 NIC's connected to my RHEL 5.3 server. Two on one subnet creating bond0, and two on a second subnet which create bond1. Both bonds are set to use DHCP to obtain IP addresses. Here is the config file for ifcfg-bond0:

Hi all,
I set up the following configuration on my system:
- An LPar with a virtual adapter, first one with a vlan id=703 and id port=13.
- The first adapter have to connect to a VIOS in which i configured an SEA.
So, the VA is set up on interface ent2, SEA on ent29 (by linking a... (0 Replies)
Hi
In the vio server when I do # lsattr -El hdisk*, I get a PVID. The same PVID is also seen when I put the lspv command on the vio client partition. This way Im able to confirm the lun using the PVID.
Similarly how does the vio client partition gets the virtual ethernet scsi client adapter... (1 Reply)

roar_vs_connection_obj(3) RoarAudio Programmer's Manual roar_vs_connection_obj(3)NAME
roar_vs_connection_obj, roar_vs_stream_obj, roar_vs_vio_obj - VS API interface for use of main API
SYNOPSIS
#include <roaraudio.h>
struct roar_connection * roar_vs_connection_obj(roar_vs_t * vss, int * error);
struct roar_stream * roar_vs_stream_obj (roar_vs_t * vss, int * error);
struct roar_vio_calls * roar_vs_vio_obj (roar_vs_t * vss, int * error);
DESCRIPTION
Those functions return internal connection, stream and VIO object of the VS object. They are used to use the main API with a VS opened
stream.
roar_vs_connection_obj() returns the connection object used for the control connection to the server.
roar_vs_stream_obj() returns the stream object storing information about the stream.
roar_vs_vio_obj() returns the VIO object used to read data from or send data to the server.
Returned objects are freed as soon as the VS object is closed. If the VS object was created using roar_vs_new_from_con(3) the connection is
not closed by the VS object and stay valid after close until it is closed by the program or library.
The VIO object MUST NOT be used while in buffered mode.
PARAMETERS
vss The VS object to return internal objects from.
error This is a pointer to a integer used to store the error value in case of error. This can be NULL if not used but it is very recom-
mended to use this error value to report good error messages to the user.
RETURN VALUE
On success these calls return the described object. On error, NULL is returned.
