Operating Systems AIX VIOS requirement for FC and ethernet Post 303043032 by Phat on Thursday 16th of January 2020 04:02:56 AM

Hi Zmaus,

Thank for your suggestion. I remove the IP from physical adapter, create new virtual adapter with "shared ethernet adapter".

Run again the command:
Code:
mkvdev -sea ent0 -vadapter ent2 -default ent2 -defaultid 2

Then, on AIX lpar (vio client) create new virtual ethernet. Then use smitty tcpip to configure the IP.
I can end up pinging the aix lpar Smilie

Regarding your question, this frame is no longer used in prod, so I took it as my test machine with few lpar and 1 VIOS only.

I have internal disks(SAS). But I wonder, if I have only 1 physical FC connected with LUN, Could I reuse it also for another virtual FCs to connect to other Lun? or I need another physical FC to do that?

NAME
mega_sas - SCSI HBA driver for LSI MegaRAID SAS controller DESCRIPTION
The mega_sas MegaRAID controller host bus adapter driver is a SCSA-compliant nexus driver that supports the Dell PERC 5/E, 5/i, 6/E and 6/i RAID controllers, the IBM ServeRAID-MR10k SAS/SATA controller and the LSI MegaRAID SAS/SATA 8308ELP, 8344ELP, 84016E, 8408ELP, 8480ELP, 8704ELP, 8704EM2, 8708ELP, 8708EM2, 8880EM2 and 8888ELP series of controllers. Supported RAID features include RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 6, RAID spans 10, 50 and 60, online capacity expansion (OCE), online RAID level migration (RLM), auto resume after loss of system power during arrays, array rebuild or reconstruction (RLM) and configurable stripe size up to 1MB. Additional supported RAID features include check consistency for background data integrity, patrol read for media scanning and repairing, 64 logical drive support, up to 64TB LUN support, automatic rebuild and global and dedicated hot spare support. CONFIGURATION
The mega_sas.conf file contains no user configurable parameters. Please configure your hardware through the related BIOS utility or the MegaCli configuration utility. If you want to install to a drive attached to a mega_sas HBA, you should create the virtual drive first from the BIOS before running the Solaris install. You can obtain the MegaCli utility from the LSI website. The mega_sas device can support up to 64 virtual disks. Note that BIOS numbers the virtual disks as 1 through 64, however in the Solaris operating environment virtual disks are numbered from 0 to 63. Also note that SAS and SATA drives cannot be configured into the same vir- tual disk. KNOWN PROBLEMS AND LIMITATIONS
The mega_sas driver does not support the LSI MegaRAID SAS 8204ELP, 8204XLP, 8208ELP, and 8208XLP controllers. FILES
/kernel/drv/mega_sas 32-bit ELF kernel module. (x86) /kernel/drv/amd64/mega_sas 64-bit kernel module. (x86) /kernel/drv/mega_sas.conf Driver configuration file (contains no user-configurable options). ATTRIBUTES
