Install FSPM on Virtual I/O Servers

Install Oracle FS Path Manager (FSPM) on Virtual I/⁠O Server as described below to enable LUN mapping to the Virtual I/O Server.

FSPM can be installed in one or more Virtual I/O servers (VIOS) with LUNs mapped from the Oracle FS System to the VIOS. The VIOS can then make these LUNs visible to client partitions as virtual SCSI disks. In this case FSPM is installed in the VIOS and not in the client partitions; the client partitions are using storage provided by the VIOS, which interfaces with the Oracle FS System. Live Partition Mobility is supported for client partitions which use this configuration option.

Client partitions can use Virtual Fibre Channel adapters or the iSCSI Initiator to directly access LUNs on the Oracle FS System. In this case, FSPM is installed in the client partitions to manage these direct connections to the Oracle FS System and not in the VIOS.

Virtual I/⁠O Server is based on AIX, but normally gives you a restricted shell interface with a limited set of specialized commands. You cannot log in directly as root.

Log in to Virtual I/⁠O Server as the prime administrator (padmin).
Run the following command:
```
oem_setup_env
```
Result:This puts you into a normal shell logged in as root.
Follow the FSPM software installation process.
