VWPAR on AIX 7.2
Hi Folks,
A little out of my depth here, but I have an issue that I'd like to try and resolve if possible and after the weekend it may be that I have to use a vWPAR.
At the weekend I tried to migrate an LPAR from a P770 to an S824, a number of these have already been migrated however this one is at a slightly lower level.
All LPARS with a level of AIX 6.1 TL7 SP10 and above have gone over fine, but at the weekend there was an attempt to migrate an LPAR at AIX 6.1 TL7 SP6-1241 which failed miserably.
It failed with no indication that there had been a failure, just downloaded the spot and hung at that point. All the normal things to check have been checked and I think that this must be a glitch that revolves around the version, although I would have thought that if you can run AIX 5.3 native on an S824 then this one would have been supported.
Anyway, to get to the point. I can only find references to vWPARS for AIX 5.2 and AIX 5.3, so can anyone tell me if the above version of AIX 6.1 will run in a vWPAR?
Regards
