GPFS FAQs indicates that virtual SCSI is supported. Can I mix physical and virtual AIX systems in a cluster for LAN-free backup? (talking about feasibility, not performance). Thank you, Mehdi

With VIOS v2, VIO servers can virtualize HBAs. So it is possible to run LAN-free via a virtualized HBA. I haven't done it yet, so can't speak to performance. David >>> Remco Post 8/19/2010 5:32 PM >>> VIO servers can't route tape

Hi, A Linux/AIX logical partition on IBM POWER systems has only virtual SCSI adapters. Can this partition use TSM LAN-free backup in any way? (tape, GPFS, SANergy,...) How about if the client uses NPIV? If yes, is NPIV virtualization completely transparent to TSM/SAN equipments? Regards, Mehdi
