    .Hi,

    Did you get a chance to run command 'lsmap -all -vnic', which is designed to display VNIC Client connected to VNIC Server (vnicserverX) and backing VF.
    Command 'lsattr -El vnicserverX' is designed to return the attributes of device vnicserverX. Can you please update us.

    Hi,

    Command 'lsattr -El vnicserverX' is designed to return the attributes of device vnicserverX.
    Command 'lsmap -all -vnic' is designed to display VNIC Client connected to VNIC Server (vnicserverX) and backing VF.
    So, request you to please run 'lsmap -all -vnic' to get VNIC mapping information.
