VIOS Configuration Question

Hi Guys,

This is a general question relating to the building of VIO servers;

It has been a long time since I have done any serious AIX work, AIX 4.3 was new and I was for the most part working with 3.2.2 on older RS6000 kit.

So to the current day, I'm about to take delivery of some new tin which I have to plan, install and configure the first batch of tin will comprise.
  • Three Power 8 S824's
  • One HMC
  • One SVC
  • One EMC VNX5800 Disk Array

The S824's are customer install and will each come with 4 x Dual Port 16Gb HBA's and 4 x Quad Port 10Gb NIC's along with the 4 x 1Gb copper NIC.

So in simple terms my question is:- When building the VIO's can I assign LAN and SAN resource on a port by port basis, or do I have to assign a it on a card by card basis. I.E. can I assign a single port from a card or do I have to assign the whole card.

Currently each server will have a pair of VIOS and a NIM server as standard, well that's the plan.

Regards

Gull04
