>From what I've read, the granularity that can be assigned is a single card (of a limited selection of models supported for that functionality), not some subset of a card such as a single network or FC port. Presumably that has to do with the degree of isolation that can be obtained by using the point-to-point nature of PCIe. I have no idea whether the PCIe spec allows a multi-lane card that implements multiple (network or storage) ports to act like a group of single lane cards. If that were possible, it might provide a basis for what you describe, although it would presumably take driver as well as hardware support to make it happen. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ ldoms-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/ldoms-discuss
