Fedora for Power currently has all of its infrastructure located on two physical hosts, each running multiple LPARs:
ppc-comm03
- Hypervisor: PowerVM
- VIOS: ppc-comm03.qa.fedoraproject.org
- ASM: ppc-comm03-mgmt.qa.fedoraproject.org
| Hostname | LPAR Name | LPAR ID |
|---|---|---|
| ppc-hub.qa | hub | 3 |
| ppc-composer.qa | composer | 4 |
| ppc-builder1.qa | builder1 | 2 |
| ppc-builder2.qa | builder2 | 5 |
| ppc-builder3.qa | builder3 | 6 |
| ppc-builder4.qa | builder4 | 7 |
- Note that builder4 is kept updated, but is normally turned off and inactive to allow the rest of the hosts on the system to have more CPU and I/O bandwidth
ppc-comm04
- Hypervisor: PowerVM
- VIOS: ppc-comm04.qa.fedoraproject.org
- ASM: ppc-comm04-mgmt.qa.fedoraproject.org
| Hostname | LPAR Name | LPAR ID |
|---|---|---|
| ppc-builder5.qa | builder5 | 2 |
| ppc-builder6.qa | builder6 | 3 |
| ppc-builder7.qa | builder7 | 4 |
| ppc-builder8.qa | builder8 | 5 |
| ppc-releng.qa | releng | 6 |
- The builder8 lpar exists but has not been installed to
- releng is a not a production "system", it's used for install testing and miscellaneous tasks as needed.
ppc-comm05
- Hypervisor: PowerVM
- VIOS: ppc-comm05.qa.fedoraproject.org
- ASM: ppc-comm05-mgmt.qa.fedoraproject.org
| Hostname | LPAR Name | LPAR ID |
|---|---|---|
| ppc-le-hub.qa | ppc-le-hub | 2 |
ppc-comm06
- Hypervisor: KVM
ppc-comm07
- Hypervisor: KVM
ppc-comm08
- Hypervisor: KVM
Handy VIOS Commands
- Immediately restart a system:
chsysstate -o shutdown -r lpar --immed --restart -n [LPAR name]
- Attach a serial console:
mkvt -id [LPAR ID]
To quit the console while you're in it, use "~.[ENTER]"
- Unattach someone else's serial console:
rmvt -id [LPAR ID]
- List all LPARs on the system (and only display LPAR name and ID):
lssyscfg -r lpar -F lpar_id,name
- Create virtual media from an ISO and attach it to a system:
mkvopt -name Fedora-18-20120830-Hamzy-ppc64-DVD -file Fedora-18-20120830-Hamzy-ppc64-DVD.iso -ro loadopt -disk Fedora-18-20120830-Hamzy-ppc64-DVD -vtd vtopt4 -release
Use 'lsmap -all' to figure out which LPAR has which vtopt device.
