HSCLA4C8 The Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) slot number 1031

Posted by steve on 25 Mar 2014 in LPM Information
HSCLA4C8 The Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) slot number 1031 specified for virtual SCSI adapter 21 on VIOS partition myvio12 for the destination managed system is not valid. Please issue the command to list the available slots on the destination VIOS partitions that can host this client adapter, and try the operation again using a slot number from the available slot number list. Alternatively, allow the management console to make the selection by not specifying a slot number.

While running an lpm from the command line, I specified the destination VIOS slot numbers. The above error is generated as the slot number I specified was greater than the maximum value for slot numbers in the VIOS profile.

The following command will show you the maximum number of slots configured to your VIOS.
lssyscfg -m Server-9119-FHB-SNABCDEF -r prof --filter lpar_names=myvios15,profile_names=normal -F name,max_virtual_slots
normal,1024

To Fix:
Either reduce the slot number to something free that is less than the maximum,
or increase the maximum in the profile and restart the VIOS from updated profile.
