Forget IBMi on IBMi I meant to use it as ref and I know NOT to put an IP
on the SEA just the guests.

Just to be clear on the setup plan
Dual Port GB NIC that VIOS owns
Port0 would have VIOS Address assigned
Port0 would also have a SEA that supports 1 or more IBM i guests
Port1 Would have another SEA that supports say another IBM i guest.

So based on your experience this will work fine.

Thanks

Kirk,

Yes we are doing exactly that with our VIOS lpars. We can access vios via
ip address on the same shared Ethernet as all the other guests on the
machine.

As far as doing it with i hosting i, it can be done, but don't put the
ip interface on the physical Ethernet, you need to put it on an additional
shared Ethernet line description. See a previous discussion about it:

Subject: VIOS and Shared Ethernet Adapter

With IBM i Hosting IBMi they say not to put an IP in the on the line that
is being used for the shared adapter on the host because of performance
reasons.

So Question Number 1 is. Is that true or VIOS. I am short ports and if
possible use the same port that my VIOS uses for it IP as Shared Ethernet
Adapter. I see in a doc that it warning if an IP on on that device it won't
be when done.

Question number 2 - Throwing Performance under the bus so to speak can I
get it to work long enough to test a theory?
