In the HMC profile, I can see there are 3 physical FC assigned to the server as attached.
I also see 6 FC ports which is equivalent from 3x2=6
Can we say the "physical" FC adapter here are actually the real physical FC adapter from Power Machine which are assigned to the lpar not via VIOS (with virtual FC adapter) ?
Hi,
Is there a way to dynamically increase the size of virtual disk on the LPAR. The virtual disk is coming from my VIO Server. From my SAN I have allocated a disk to VIO Server and from VIO Server to my LPAR....If I increase the space of the logical SAN DISK (DS 4700 using IBM TotalStorage... (0 Replies)
Hi,
I want to know if there is any command which will tell me if an AIX machine is a LPar or not. I am using "lparstat -i" but it does not work on all AIX machines. Is there any generic command by whose output I will come to know if it is an LPar or not?
Please help.
Thanks,

Hello,
I've set up email alerts on AIX Servers. so that i can get email notifications (via mail relay server) when ever there is abnormal behavior.
