HMC Standards
Contained here are the standards for defining new LPAR's in the
Power5 architecture environment using the Hardware Management Console.
These standards describe the information required to define the LPAR's
and the format in which this information should be presented.
This environment utilizes the VIO server to virtualize the hardware
I/O adapters to client LPAR's, thus allowing multiple LPAR's to share
resources. Implementation of this type of environment requires
extensive up-front design work and planning. Each hardware adapter must
be identified to the VIO server and virtualized for use by each client
LPAR.
To begin configuring this environment, build a spreadsheet to contain
all frame and I/O adapter information, this spreadsheet should contain
at least the following:
|

Configuring Virtual Ethernet Adapters
Configuring virtual ethernet adapters for use in CGE's high availability
environment requires configuration of multiple server side ethernet
adapters as well as multiple client side adapters. Each VIO server will
have one server side ethernet adapter that can be shared to all client
LPAR's requiring virtual ethernet adapters.
This document describes a standard for establishing virtual ethernet
adapters in the VIO Server environment. This standard is specific to
the numbering scheme used to identify the VLAN ID's of the virtual
ethernet adapters. The VLAN ID number is also referred to in the HMC as
the PVID number.
This document assumes there are two VIO servers in the environment
and the names of the VIO servers are represented by "*vio0" and
"*vio5".
The VLAN ID numbers will be three digit numbers, each digit
representing a different aspect of the underlying ethernet adapter.
3 Digit VLAN ID Number
|
First Digit
|
Second Digit
|
Third Digit
|
5: Boot/Service
6: Standby
7: Backup
8: Management
9: Intra-Frame
|
0: Gigabit
5: 10/100
9: Bus
|
0,2,4,6,8: VIO Server with even numbered hostnames
1,3,5,7,9: VIO Server with odd numberd hostnames
|
The first digit of the VLAN ID numbers associated with virtual
ethernet adapters will be used to represent a variety of adapter
purposes. Those purposes include boot, standby, backup, management, and
intra-frame communications.
- 500-599: boot/service
- 600-699: standby
- 700-799: backup
- 800-899: management
- 900-999: intra-frame
The third digit of the three digit VLAN ID number assigned to virtual
ethernet adapters associated with the VIO Server named *vio0 will end
with a number between 0 and 4.
Example: 500, 501, 502, 510, 520, 521, ...
The VLAN ID numbers assigned to virtual ethernet adapters associated
with the VIO Server named *vio5 will end with an odd number beginning at
5.
Example: 505, 506, 507, 515, 525, 526, ...
The second digit of the three digit VLAN ID sequence will represent the
adapter speed, gigabit cards will be represented by 0 thru 4, 10/100
adapters by 5 thru 8, and bus speed adapters by a 9. This digit may be
reconfigured as necessary.

An LPAR may have multiple adapters of a variety of types, for
example an LPAR that provides database services and is a member of an
HACMP cluster may have boot, standby, management, backup, and
intra-frame virtual adapters as follows:
- Gigabit adapter used for boot/service address
- Gigabit adapter used for standby address
- 10/100 backup adapter
- 10/100 management adapter
- 2 intra-frame adapters

This virtual ethernet information can be automatically gathered from an
existing frame through the HMC using the script
"virtualeth.ksh. Example output from
this script follows:

Configuring Virtual SCSI Adapters
Configuration of the virtual I/O adapters requires the knowledge of
disk layouts as well as networking configuration. The virtual SCSI
adapters require server and client side adapters to be configured on the
HMC. The server side portion of the SCSI adapter, configured on the
VIO, requires a frame wide unique "slot number" be defined. For high
availability a server side portion of the SCSI adapter must be
configured for each VIO server. This means that each virtual disk or
logical volume connection is associated with two server side SCSI
adapters, one on each VIO server. By convention the standard has
become that each SCSI adapter is numbered as a multiple of 10, with the
first SCSI adapter of the server side high availability pair being
configured on the first VIO server and ending with the number 0, i.e.,
210, 220, 230, 240, ... The second SCSI adapter of the server side
high availability pair is configured on the second VIO server and ends
with the number 5, i.e., 215, 225, 235, 245, ...
For each LPAR that uses virtual disk or logical volumes, a client
side virtual SCSI adapter must be configured on the HMC. The client
side of the virtual SCSI adapter requires additional information and
it's settings to correspond with the server side of the SCSI adapter.
Coordination of the slot numbers defined here will make debugging and
tracking of problems much easier and is highly desired. The information
required to configure a client side SCSI adapter includes slot number,
the name of the server side SCSI adapter remote partition, and the slot
number of the server side SCSI adapter on the remote partition. The
client side slot number should correspond with the server side slot
number to make debugging and tracking easier. As an example of defining
both server and client side SCSI adapters in a high availability
environment:
For each LPAR, a pair of virtual SCSI adapters shall be configured to
be used for attachment of the operating system and paging disks.
Another pair of virtual SCSI adapters shall be configured for the
purpose of application disk attachment. The virtual SCSI adapters
designated for use as operating system disk attachment shall be numbered
between 10 and 199. The virtual SCSI adapters designated for use as
application disk attachment shall be numbered between 200 and 499.
Using this standard, each VIO server will have one virtual SCSI
adapter per LPAR for the operating system, and one virtual SCSI adapter
per LPAR for the application storage. Each LPAR will reference two
virtual SCSI adapters, one from each VIO server, for the operating
system storage, and two virtual SCSI adapters, one from each VIO server,
for the application storage. Examples of this is shown below.

Each virtual SCSI adapter may have one or more disks with it,
depending upon the LPAR requirements. These disk associations are
performed on the VIO server by referencing the slot numbers assigned to
each LPAR.
This virtual SCSI adapter information can be automatically gathered
from an existing frame through the HMC using the script
"virtualscsi.ksh. Example output from this
script follows:
