Shared Storage Pool capabilities and limitations SANCOM will not be supported in a Shared Storage Pool environment.Using SCSI reservations (SCSI Reserve/Release and SCSI-3 Reserve) for fencing physical disks in the Shared Storage pool is not supported.Virtual SCSI devices provisioned from the Shared Storage Pool may drive higher CPU utilization than the classic Virtual SCSI devices.It is recommended that the VIOSs that are part of the Shared Storage Pool configuration keep their clocks synchronized.The forward and reverse lookup should resolve to the IP address/hostname that is used for Shared Storage Pool configuration.For step by step instructions, refer to the TCP/IP name resolution documentation in the IBM Knowledge Center. A Shared Storage Pool configuration should configure the TCP/IP resolver routine for name resolution to resolve host names locally first, and then use the DNS.A Shared Storage Pool configuration can use IPV4 or IPV6, but not a combination of both.The network interface used for Shared Storage Pool configuration must be on a highly reliable network which is not congested. Uninterrupted network connectivity is required for operation.The performance of the application is dependent on the I/O subsystem throughput.There are more than 8 processes concurrently performing I/O.The server generates a random access pattern for the I/O device.However, it is recommended to limit the size of individual luns to 16 GB for optimal performance in cases where all of the following conditions are met: The Shared Storage Pool pool name must be less than 127 characters long.The Shared Storage Pool cluster name must be less than 63 characters long.Maximum number of physical volumes that can be added to or replaced from a pool at one time: 64.Number of Virtual Disks (LUs) Mappings in Pool

If Update Release 2.2.4.20 is installed, the command output is 2.2.4.20. To determine if Update Release 2.2.4.20 is already installed, run the following command from the VIOS command line: Update Release 2.2.4.20 updates your VIOS partition to ioslevel 2.2.4.20.

Update Release 2.2.4.20, like all VIOS Update Releases, can be applied to either HMC-managed or IVM-managed VIOS. The VIOS Update Release 2.2.4.20 includes the IVM code, but it will not be enabled on HMC-managed systems. Microcode or system firmware downloads for Power Systems

If a system firmware update is necessary, it is recommended that the firmware be updated before you update the VIOS to Update Release 2.2.4.20.

To take full advantage of all the function available in the VIOS, it may be necessary to be at the latest system firmware level. Review the list of fixes included in Update Release 2.2.4.20.

Please refer to the VIOS Maintenance Strategy here for more details regarding the change to the VIOS release numbering scheme. For example, VIOS 2.2.4.2 has been changed to VIOS 2.2.4.20. The VIOS "fix level" (the 4th number) has changed to two digits. In June 2015, VIOS introduces the minipack as a new service stream delivery vehicle as well as a change to the VIOS fix level numbering scheme. NIM Master level must be equal to or higher than
