Chapter 6. Standalone SAN rootvg to virtual Fibre Channel 147
On the standalone source host
The lspv command below shows us that rootvg is on hdisk8. Thus, our machine
was booted from hdisk8.
# lspv
hdisk0 000fe4012a8f0920 None
hdisk1 none None
hdisk2 000fe4012913f4bd None
hdisk3 none None
hdisk4 000fe401106cfc0c None
hdisk5 000fe4012b5361f2 None
hdisk6 none None
hdisk7 none None
hdisk8 000fe401727b47c5 rootvg
active
The following lsdev commands confirm that hdisk8 is a LUN on a storage array
that is mapped to the client through a Fibre Channel adapter. The tail command
output will be used at the end of the migration as additional evidence that the
client partition has in fact booted off the standalone host’s original disk.

Fibre Channel switches to the NPIV-supported Fibre Channel card on the
Virtual I/O Server.
