  • 1.  VIO server as NIM client?

    What's the consensus, or what experiences have people had, on making VIO servers NIM clients? I've stayed away from it for a variety of reasons (the AIX version oslevel gives under oem_setup_env is higher than the TL used by the NIM server, fear that a later VIO server upgrade would remove this ability, and my strong impression that IBM would like to make the VIO server more like the HMC than the oddball AIX box it is). However, it would be nice.
