Hello Unix Admins:
Has any one in this distribution list implemented SVC (SAN Volume Contoller - A solution from IBM) in your environment? If you have, do you have any do's / don'ts? Anything which you like sharing would be really appreciated.

Can anyone recommend me some reading material surrounding how AIX handles LUNs:
- with and without MPIO installed
- with and without SDD or SDDPCM installed
Where does lspath sit in all of this (MPIO layer?). Can a system be built with just MPIO software? Is MPIO software even needed?
I guess... (0 Replies)

I was wondering if there is a way of auto-detecting a new vpath, using IBM's SDD driver, on a Linux platform.
ON AIX it is a simple as running cfgmgr.

Hi folks.
We want to move a "physical" AIX box to a VIOed LPAR. The physical box is running SDD with disks from a DS8300. I want to be able to reattach those LUNs from the DS8300 to my VIO server which is running SDDPCM and then assigned them back to my AIX LPAR. Any thoughts about this?

firmload
FIRMLOAD(9) BSD Kernel Developer's Manual FIRMLOAD(9)
NAME
firmload -- Firmware loader API for device drivers
SYNOPSIS
#include <dev/firmload.h>
int
firmware_open(const char *drvname, const char *imgname, firmware_handle_t *fhp);
int
firmware_close(firmware_handle_t fh);
off_t
firmware_get_size(firmware_handle_t fh);
int
firmware_read(firmware_handle_t fh, off_t offset, void *buf, size_t size);
void *
firmware_malloc(size_t size);
void
firmware_free(void *buf, size_t size);
DESCRIPTION
firmload provides a simple and convenient API for device drivers to load firmware images from files residing in the file system that are nec-
essary for the devices that they control. Firmware images reside in sub-directories, one for each driver, of a series of colon-separated
path prefixes specified by the sysctl variable hw.firmware.path.
FUNCTIONS
The following functions are provided by the firmload API:
firmware_open(drvname, imgname, fhp)
Open then firmware image imgname for the driver drvname. The path to the firmware image file is constructed by appending the string
``/drvname/imgname'' to each configured path prefix until opening the firmware image file succeeds. Upon success, firmware_open()
returns 0 and stores a firmware image handle in the location pointed to by fhp. Otherwise, an error code is returned to indicate the
reason for failure.
firmware_close(fh)
Close the firmware image file associated with the firmware handle fh. Returns 0 upon success or an error code to indicate the reason
for failure.
firmware_get_size(fh)
Returns the size of the image file associated with the firmware handle fh.
firmware_read(fh, offset, buf, size)
Reads from the image file associated with the firmware handle fh beginning at offset offset for length size. The firmware image data
is placed into the buffer specified by buf. Returns 0 upon success or an error code to indicate the reason for failure.
firmware_malloc(size)
Allocates a region of wired kernel memory of size size. Note: firmware_malloc() may block.
firmware_free(buf, size)
Frees a region of memory previously allocated by firmware_malloc().

HISTORY
The firmload framework first appeared in NetBSD 4.0.
