Operating Systems AIX Power8 S812L:HMC issue and ... Post 302962110 by The Doctor on Tuesday 8th of December 2015 12:15:39 PM

My knowledge of the "L" series is next to nil, but perhaps the S812L IBM Redbook will help provide some answers --> http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redpapers/pdfs/redp5098.pdf

Page 78 lists the minimum O/S levels supported, at the time of its writing. My interpretation is only Ubuntu is supported as "bare metal"..... but I have no first hand experience with this..... so take it with a grain of salt.

If your S812L is capable of running a VIO Server (i.e. IVM now provides the virtualization functions for you) then you have a wealth of other options for Red Hat / SUSE.

If you log into your ASMI, expand all menus, find VET Capability Settings, and post all the settings maybe we can tell if your m/c is VIO Server capable. And I get it, if you come back saying the VIO Server route represents a learning curve that isn't on your radar right now.

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. EXAMPLES
