Determining the virtual Ethernet switch name and mode in the destination server
Determine the name and mode of the virtual Ethernet switches in the destination server by using the Hardware Management Console (HMC).
To determine the name and mode of the virtual Ethernet switches, complete the following steps:
Compare the name and mode of the virtual Ethernet switches
in the source server from step 1 with
the name and mode of the virtual Ethernet switches in the destination
server from step 2. The
results of the comparison can be one of the following:
- If the name and mode are identical, the mobile partition can be successfully migrated from the source server to the destination server.
- If the switch does not exist on the destination server, a switch with the same name and mode is automatically created in the destination server during the migration process.
- If a switch with the same name and different mode exists in the destination server, a warning message is displayed.
