The correct answer is D. The SEAs are each connected to separate virtual switches. See the full explanation below for the reasoning.

Question

A system administrator must provide network access to a single VLAN for multiple partitions on a Power 795 server. The Power 795 server has a pair VIO Server (VIOS) partitions, with a Shared Ethernet Adapter (SEA) in each one. Each SEA will use a single- port Ethernet adapter as a backing device. Both SEAs must support network traffic so both adapters are used simultaneously. Network service must be resilient. All client partitionsmust be able to maintain network access to this VLAN through either VIOS partition if the other VIOS partition fails or is taken out of service. Which of the following configurations would satisfy this goal?

Options

  • AThe SEAs are both connected to the samevirtual switch.
  • BThe SEAs are each connected to separate virtual switches.
  • CThe SEAs are both connected to the same virtual switch.
  • DThe SEAs are each connected to separate virtual switches.
