PowerVM

Could someone from IBM kindly assist with this request?

Follow the below

1. Install latest VIO server release and apply the recommended rules after VIO installation is completed and license acceptance
2. the recommended best practices for configuring a Shared Ethernet Adapter (SEA) on an IBM Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) , below the link for SEA configuration mode

https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/how-setup-sea-failover-load-sharing-configuration

this for network configuration

I recommend to read the below IBM redbook for PowerVM Virtualization Introduction and Configuration

https://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg247940.pdf

Thank you 

Anas AlSaleh, thanks for your answer, but I believe you didn't even look into what you have recommended: those resources are outdated - the Redbook is from 2013 and the guide is for older VIOS versions. The specific presentation I'm looking for had fresh technical content from IBM field engineers, which is difficult to find in the official documentation. That is why I am still hoping to get support from an IBM representative on my request.

Hi Dmitry

I know this presentation very well and I shared with you the Redbook just to explain the PowerVM concept and explanation .

if you read my previous point , ( I said install latest VIO level with recommended rules apply once you accept the license )

So, once you apply the rules ( rules -o deploy -d) , Deploys the default, IBM-recommended rules to the VIOS. This is typically done on a fresh installation to apply best practices.

And there’s some tuning recommendation for the VEN and SEA when you configure the network 

However, the presentation that shared before by Fredric it’s not IBM Redbook or technote.

All I can find is version 2.3 here.

I don't work for IBM.

Hello Alexander Pettitt,

 I was able to download version 3.0 while the original URL was still active. My initial thought was that the link was removed by mistake, but I now understand the project may have been discontinued after Fredrik's probable departure from IBM. It's unfortunate if that's the case, as it was a valuable resource.

Hi Dmitry,

Here you are version 3.0. This is the last version I downloaded, I don't know if there were newer ones.

Regards,
Michal
