This topic includes redundancy considerations for client
logical partitions. MPIO, HACMP™,
and mirroring for the client logical partition are discussed.

Link Aggregation or EtherChannel devices
A Link Aggregation, or EtherChannel, device is a network port-aggregation
technology that allows several Ethernet adapters to be aggregated. The
adapters can then act as a single Ethernet device. Link Aggregation helps
provide more throughput over a single IP address than would be possible with
a single Ethernet adapter.
Shared Ethernet Adapter failover Shared Ethernet Adapter failover
provides redundancy by configuring a backup Shared Ethernet Adapter on
a different Virtual I/O Server logical
partition that can be used if the primary Shared Ethernet Adapter fails.
The network connectivity in the client logical partitions continues without
disruption.
