I have running dual VIOS on a P9 systems, and just created a new LPAR profile. My objective is to create LPAR Client VFC adapters, and then DLPAR VFC Server adapters on the VIOS.
In the HMC v9 Enhanced GUI, I have DLPAR a VFC adapter to both VIOS, however, you can't specify the partner adapter to connect to? Why is that?
Also, when I use command line to DLPAR the VFC adapters using chhwres with the -s option, to specify the partner adapter when adding in the VFC adapters to a VIOS, it says that the VFC adapter with X value already has the X value partner adapter already associated with another adapter.
e.g In the VIOS profile, an existing Server Fibre Channel Adapter has Adapter ID 14 and Partner Adapter ID 11, and I want to DLPAR Server Fibre Channel Adapter Adapter ID 15 and Partner Adapter ID 11 (for another LPAR of course) and it won't allow.
Command:
Why is this failing? All existing Server Fibre Channel adapters in the VIOS profile all have obviously different Server Adapter IDs but all pointing to the same Partner Adapter IDs to their own LPAR clients.

I thought this would be as easy as running 'lsrsrc IBM.MCP IPAddresses', but when I run that command, the resource is empty. Is there some where else I should be looking, or is there a reason why this resource... (5 Replies)

I am trying to generate a report to track dlpar operation performed on a MS and was wondering if anyone has done this before.
I can get history from HMC using lssvcevents , but this does not give me details as to what quantity was added or removed .
Any thoughts ?

Hi all,
i would like to know if it's possible upgrade AIX 5.3 to 6.1 on a LPAR without use the HMC.
so i would like to know if i must use the console to do it or i can do all from the up&running system on LPAR.
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to run the lscod command against an HMC that has managed system names with spaces.
Tried enclosing the managed system names in quotes; single and double.
How do I get the command to run?
