Hello
I am experiencing some issues trying to have multiple LDOM's on my 2 CPU
T5440.
After I install the OS on the box. I found out I only have 2 buses, *not
4*, they are pci at 400 and pci at 500.
The internal disk is on pci at 400 bus
The onboard NIC is on pci at 500 bus
I need to install a I/O domain with LDOM that has it's own HBA card.
If try to give the bus pci at 400 to my I/O domain, I lost the internal
disk from my control domain.
If I try to give the bus pci at 500 to my I/O domain, I lost the onboard
NIC card from my control domain.
I could not find any document telling me how to assign an PCI slot to a
domain,
*My Questions*
* Is there anyway I could have *4* different buses (device path)
with 2 CPU with the T5440?
* Can I assign an individual PCI slot to I/O domain?
* The LDOM documention says that I could split the PCI bus but there
is no information on how to do that with the T5440, only a T2000
* If we can not set up an guest domain with dedicate I/O, what is
performance penalty using virtual I/O?
Thanks
Chris
