devices to the virtual partition.
The VSP presents devices to the
virtual partition as virtual
devices.
The vPar network consists of
vNICs and vswitches. For virtual
partitions to communicate either
with other virtual partitions or
outside the VSP system, each
virtual partition's virtual network
must be associated with a
vswitch. If you start a virtual
machine without a vswitch, the
virtual machine has no network
communication channel.
Virtual storage devices are
backed by physical devices on
the VSP system. You can specify
one of the following devices –
disk, dvd, tape, changer,
burner, or hba.

The address must be specified
in IPv4 dot-decimal notation.
If the -K option is specified,
then the -L option too must be
specified.
By default, the root user may
access the console of the vPar
using the vparconsole
command or through the Virtual
iLO Remote Console, if
configured. There is no need to
configure a console account if
the root user for this purpose
does not violate security policy.
However, access to the console,
through the vparconsole
command or the remote console,
can be granted to groups or
individual users, with either
administrative or operator virtual
iLO permissions.
