The system provides both single and dual Virtual input/output
(VIO) server configurations on IBM Power Systems hosts that support VIO.
You can present the system volumes to the VIO server host
bus adapters (HBAs) by using the same
method as a standard AIX installation. For
single VIO server configurations, volumes can be split up into
logical volumes by the VIO server and mapped
to the VIO clients. For dual VIO server configurations,
volumes cannot be split into logical volumes,
and must instead be mapped intact through both servers to the VIO
clients.
