 //Note// If your VIOS is not running the latest VIOS code, 3.1.3.00, you'll find that the "FC adapter name on VIOS" attribute will be blank
+== You can mask theses informations on the VIOS ==
+It is worth noting that you can prevent this information from being available to the client LPAR by changing the secure_va_info attribute on your 3.1.3.00 VIOS.
+For example, if we were to change the secure_va_info value from no to yes, like so:
+<cli prompt='$'>
+$ chdev -dev viosnpiv0 -attr secure_va_info=yes
+viosnpiv0 changed
+$ virtadapinfo -list
+secure : yes
+</cli>
+Then the client LPAR will see the following (Secure) output for that VIOS:
+<cli prompt='#'>
+# cat /proc/sys/adapter/fc/fcs1/hostinfo
+VFC client adapter name                   : fcs1
+Host partition name  (VIOS)               : Secure
+VFC host adapter name                     : Secure
+VFC host adapter location code            : Secure
+FC adapter name on VIOS                   : Secure
+FC adapter location code  on VIOS         : Secure
+</cli>
