The IBM vNIC protocol provides support for the user to initiate a failover from the client LPAR in case the current backing infrastructure is deemed inadequate or in an error state. Support for two H_VIOCTL sub-commands for vNIC devices are required to implement this function. These commands are H_GET_SESSION_TOKEN and H_SESSION_ERR_DETECTED. "[H_GET_SESSION_TOKEN] is used to obtain a session token from a VNIC client adapter. This token is opaque to the caller and is intended to be used in tandem with the SESSION_ERROR_DETECTED vioctl subfunction." "[H_SESSION_ERR_DETECTED] is used to report that the currently active backing device for a VNIC client adapter is behaving poorly, and that the hypervisor should attempt to fail over to a different backing device, if one is available." To provide tools access to this functionality the vNIC driver creates a sysfs file that, when written to, will send a request to pHyp to failover to a different backing device.
