    I have the following mpio_get_config -Av output from vios attached to DS5100:

    mpio_get_config -Av
    Frame id 0:
    Storage Subsystem worldwide name: 60ab80047be1e00004acee1e6
    Controller count: 2
    Partition count: 3
    Partition 0:
    Storage Subsystem Name = 'ERA'
    hdisk LUN # Ownership User Label
    hdisk2 6 A (preferred) LUN1
    ...

    Partition 1:
    Storage Subsystem Name = 'ERA'
    hdisk LUN # Ownership User Label
    hdisk6 4 B (preferred) LUN2
    ...
    Partition 2:
    Storage Subsystem Name = 'ERA'
    hdisk LUN # Ownership User Label
    hdisk4 2 B (preferred) LUN3
    ...

    Why 3 partitions? Other vioses have one storage partition in mpio_get_config output.
