Use NVMe disk on AIX

https://community.ibm.com/community/user/power/blogs/jim-allen1/2020/11/09/installing-aix-on-an-fc-nvme-disk

Requirements: - SVC v8.4.0 min - AIX 7.2 TL 5 and AIX 7.3 - Power 9 host (with FW 950 or later) or Power 10 host (FW 1010 or later)

  • FC-NVMe disks required SAN switch attached
  • support only provided for 32Gb FC adapters (EN1A, EN1B), which have at least the 12.4.257.30 (FCode level 12.8.9) adapter firmware level.
  • This is not supported via NPIV from an AIX LPAR: instead the FC adapter must be assigned to the AIX LPAR.
