To allow more logical ports for the new LPARs, the administrator changed the MCS value in the HMC to 4. When configuring the new LPAR profiles, the administrator does not see the extra ports. Which of the following is the most likely reason ?
Options
- ADecreasing the MCS value reduces the number of ports available.
- BChanging MCS value requires the managed system to undergo a power cycle
- CThe VIO server must have the "cfgdev" command run to discover thenew ports.
