Table 5 Show host DIO resources (continued)

DescriptionName

Indicates whether the operation of the DIO is at a function

level or device level. In Function Level Assignment (FLA),

each function is shared among several VMs or vPars. In

Device Level Assignment (DLA), an entire device is assigned

to the same guest OS. In the DIO pool, all functions of DIOs

with device-level assignment are placed together. If a

command is issued to one function in the device, all other

functions also perform the same operation. For example,

0/0/0/4/0/0/0 and 0/0/0/4/0/0/1 are device-level

functions and belong to the device, 0/0/0/4/0/0. They

are placed in a single cell in the DIO pool. If you select

them from the host or the HPVM table, the command

preview field displays only the first function,

0/0/0/4/0/0/0.

Assignment Level

Indicates the type of DIO driver. The driver used must be

compatible with DIO. For example, HPUX 11i v3

1112/1203 iexgbe guest driver with DIO support.

Driver Type

Displays a description of the DIO network adaptor. For

example, the name of the adaptor is provided,

AM225-60001 HP Integrity PCIe 2-port 10GbE-SR Fabric

Adapter.

Description

Indicates whether the DIO is restricted or not. If the DIO is

restricted, you cannot change the owner of the DIO from

host to HPVM.

Restricted

Indicates the IP address of the LAN interface of the DIO.IP

Indicates the name of the Vswitch associated with the DIO.Vswitch

Table 6 Show HPVM DIO resources

DescriptionName

The H/W Path indicates the functions of a device. For

example, a function H/W path 0/0/0/3/0/0/0 indicates

function 0, which is the last number of the H/W path.

Therefore, 0/0/0/3/0/0/[0–N] are all functions of the

same device 0/0/0/3/0/0.

H/W Path

Indicates whether the operation of the DIO is at a function

level or device level. In Function Level Assignment (FLA),

each function is shared among several guest VMs or vPars.

In Device Level Assignment (DLA), an entire device is

assigned to the same guest OS. In the DIO pool, all

functions of DIOs with device-level assignment are placed

together.

If a command is issued to one function in the device, all

other functions also perform the same operation.

For example, 0/0/0/4/0/0/0 and 0/0/0/4/0/0/1 are

device-level functions and belong to the device,

0/0/0/4/0/0. They are placed in a single cell in the DIO

pool. If you select them from the host or HPVM table, the
