Do these adapters have available unused ports? Many have 2 ports but certainly not all.

Hi,

We use IBM i V6R1.

We have a 2 or more LAN adaptors in each LPAR. We use one IP for HA (ITERA) and other is accessed by users.

Thanks and Regards,

Please tell us the software release as the available options change significantly. If you are truly running AS/400 then you may not have options. Also do you have more than 1 LAN card available for each partition?

Hi,

We have 5 LPARs on each of our servers. Recently we faced an issue where the LAN adaptor of iseries system failed and we had a five hour outage.
I was considering if we could have IP redundency - so that each LPAR would have 2 IPs pointing one IP which the user access. So if one IP fails, there is a fail-over to the other IP. Could some please guide how this is done in AS/400 system?

Thanks and Regards,
Vik.
