Some explainations of the presentation
VIOs architecture design :
Standard LVM mirroring for VIO rootvg (separate SCSI adapters in each VIO)
Both VIOs active for virtual SCSI (used for AIX partitions rootvg mirroring)
Active/passive model for Ethernet access
Mutual takeover (heartbeat)
Failure of one VIO transparent to partitions (a few IP packets lost)
Allows hot maintenance of VIOs
Each VIO on a different LAN switch
Multipathing for SAN access inside each VIO (sddpcm) + pathing failover in the
AIX partition between the 2 VIOs (Mpio)
Various SAN ACCESS ( SDDPCM for Ess DS8000 and SVC – RDAC )
