    Hi all,

    I have a VIOS running version 2.1 and have the 8gb HBA's installed on a P6-P570. The VIOS serves IO to AIX5.3TL08 lpars and AIX6.1TL03 LPARS.

    What I would like to know is that can I configure NPIV for the AIX6.1 clients as well as VSCSI devices for the AIX5.3 clients using the same physical HBA connections to the SAN?

    I've been trying to find some good documentation on NPIV with no avail.

    Thanks

    Chris

    Yep, you can do that.

    "VIOS can support NPIV and vSCSI simultaneously"
