SAN Zoning Validation for LPM from HMC

Provide a Automated Procedure to Validate SAN zoning for LPM for any or all Lpars in a given frame from HMC instead of logging into to each Lpar and VIOS. This procedure or script should be able to tell whether the lpar move from one frame to another frame is going to work or not after looking at SAN zoning.

    Please see comments in previous note. If the NPIV validation option in migrlpar command doesn't solve the requirement, please re-open the RFE with more details on the enhancement.

    Hi,

    We have a new option which was introduced with HMC 8.6 & PowerVM 2.2.5 to perform port+disk level validation for NPIV disks as part of the migration validation. Please see the blog https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en_us#!/wiki/Power%20Systems/page/Live%20Partition%20Mobility%20%28LPM%29%20improvements%20in%20PowerVM%202.2.5 for more information. Does that solve your requirement?

    Thanks.
