Configuring vHBAs

The Oracle vHBA virtualizes HBA connectivity. It appears to the OS as a physical HBA and enables a server to have an FC SAN attachment without having a physical HBA present. Instead of the host server using an HBA, an IB HCA is used, which then virtualizes the HBA and allows SAN connectivity.


Note -  VHBAs are supported only for the virtualization switch. VHBAs are not supported for the leaf switch.

These topics explain how to plan and configure vHBAs.
