Shared NIC function
(1) Shared mode and dedicated mode per port cannot coexist on a single controller.
(2) This function is available only with LPAR manager expansion mode. With LPAR
manager standard mode, LPAR manager system memory is increased by 256 MB,
which reduces the memory available for the user by 256 MB.
(3) Make sure to deactivate all LPARs before changing LPAR manager operating
modes: changing from LPAR manager standard mode to LPAR manager
expansion mode, or from LPAR manager expansion mode to LPAR manager
standard mode. When you select Yes to "Save LPAR manager configuration and
reboot LPAR manager system. Do You Continue? ", LPAR manager will be
automatically rebooted.
(4) A definition per port is provided with LPAR manager expansion mode; with LPAR
manager standard mode, a definition per controller is provided.
(5) When you have defined a segment by the port in LPAR manager expansion mode,
the settings remains even if the mode is changed to LPAR manager standard mode.
To disable the definition by the port, cancel it with the Virtual NIC Assignment
screen and then set the shared NIC again.
(6) You can configure this function with the LPAR manager screen, HvmSh command,
or HVM Navigator.
(7) Version downgrade by switching LPAR manager firmware banks is not supported.
