Chapter 3. Standalone SCSI rootvg to virtual SCSI 65
On the client partition
18.You can now boot the client logical partition using the SMS option and
discover the newly presented virtual SCSI disk that maps to your SAN disk.
The migration is almost complete.
Remember to set up the Ethernet addresses on the virtual Ethernet interfaces
since they were last used on physical Ethernet cards and may not be correct
in this virtual environment.
3.3 Cloning rootvg to external disk
This method uses the AIX alt_disk_copy command to clone the operating
system to a separate disk that has been presented from a SAN. The SAN disk is
then used as a virtual SCSI device from the Virtual I/O Server and presented to a
logical partition.
In this example, both the standalone client and the Virtual I/O Server require
access to a Fibre Channel adapter. You may be required to relocate the Fibre
Channel adapter from the standalone client to the Virtual I/O Server once the
alt_disk_copy procedure is complete to allow the target client logical partition to
access the SAN.
