Adapter ID numbering scheme

Learn about the numbering of Adapter IDs.

For a large client partition environment, devise an adapter ID numbering scheme. It makes managing your environment easier, particularly when you want to list multiple shared Ethernet adapters, a lot of virtual Small Computer Serial Interface (SCSI) adapters and virtual Fibre Channel adapters. Then, configure them back to a network, to a client partition, or to the Virtual I/O Server (VIOS).
