Addition or Deletion of a Shared FC Adapter to the activated LPAR
It is not possible to add or delete a shared FC adapter to the activated LPAR.
To change the configuration of a shared FC adapter, all LPARs have to be
deactivated. Changing the configuration of a shared FC adapter may take a few
minutes.
Therefore, it is recommended that you set the configuration of the shared FC
adapter before you activate LPARs.
Communication in the event of a failure in the shared FC adapter
If a failure occurs in a shared FC adapter, all the LPARs sharing the failed
physical FC adapter will become unable to use it to communicate.
Detection of the unallocated FC ports by guest OSs (when the FC Port is
assigned respectively to an LPAR)
With the shared FC function, you can use a 2-port FC adapter such that you
allocate only one port of it to a LPAR but do not allocate another port to any
LPARs. When you boot a guest OS on such LPAR, the guest OS may detect
the unallocated port as follows, but the OS activity will not be affected.
Microsoft Windows:
SCSI described as “Unassigned Hitachi Shared FC Device” and a RAID
controller device can be seen from the device manager.
Linux
By inputting the lspci command, the following device is informed (the head
“bb:dd.f” may be different depending on the PCI slot location).
bb:dd.f Fibre Channel: Hitachi, Ltd: Unknown device 3017
Port in the FC Shared function
In the FC shared function, the LPAR manager FC shared management port logs in
the FC switch using the virtual WWPN (2300000087xxxxxx) vfcID=0.
Therefore, the port of the FC switch connected to the FC shared port can see the
log-in status of by the virtual WWPN vfcID=0 as well as the WWPN used on the
guest OS.
