Which HMC is controlling my LPAR?

To figure out which HMC is controlling a particular LPAR.

Login to a LPAR and use either of commads

$ /usr/sbin/rsct/bin/rmcdomainstatus -s ctrmc

I a 0x3b7a655c73b1d930 0001 XX.XX.XX.XX ( Where XX.XX.XX.XX is the IP address of HMC).

or

$lsrsrc IBM.ManagementServer

Resource Persistent Attributes for IBM.ManagementServer

resource 1:

Name = 'XX.XX.XX.XX"

Hostname = "XX.XX.XX.XX"

ManagerType = "HMC"

LocalHostname = "lparname"

ClusterTM = "9078-160"

ClusterSNum = ""

ActivePeerDomain = ""

Trace on VIO commands.

VIO command shell is a restricted shell(like HMC shell). If anybody wondering what AIX commands will be executed beneath VIO commands?

Here is the answer

example:

$ export CLI_DEBUG=33

$ lsmap -all

AIX: "lsdev -c adapter -t IBM,v-scsi-host -s vdevice -F "name" | wc -l -c"

AIX: "lsdev -c adapter -t IBM,v-scsi-host -s vdevice -F "name""

AIX: "lsdev -C -l vhost0 -F "physloc""

AIX: "lsdev -p vhost0 -F "name" | wc -l -c"

AIX: "lsdev -p vhost0 -F "name""

AIX: "lsattr -E -l vtscsi0 -F "value" -a aix_tdev,LogicalUnitAddr"

SVSA Physloc Client

-

$ export CLI_DEBUG=33

$ mirrorios -f hdisk1

AIX: "lsvg -p rootvg"

AIX: "lsvg -p rootvg | awk '{print $1}' | wc -l -c"

AIX: "lsvg -p rootvg | awk '{print $1}'"

AIX: "lsvg -l rootvg "

AIX: "lsvg -l rootvg | grep boot | awk '{print $1}'"

AIX: "lsvg -M rootvg "

AIX: "lsvg -M rootvg | grep hd5 | awk '{print $2}' | awk '{FS=":"}{print $3}'"
