Re: Connectin HPE 3PAR to Power 9 and able to IPL from it?

[Holger Scherer <hs@xxxxxxx>]

Tried this (boot replicated VIOS to other machine) with same hardware (2*P7 boxes) and the result is not suitable
for DR purposes as you will run into lots of new devices due to serial number (or maybe bus number) changes.

Better way is to have two VIOS on two SANs.

It seems unlikely to me that a replicated VIO server would be any level of happy at all if IPLed onto another system. That said, I've not tried it either.  Dang another thing for the 'some day' list.....
