IBM x3850 M2 type 7233
I have checked the HCL and its on the list.
From what I have read the DirectPath allows VM's direct access to PCI I/O devices to reduce overhead?
However, when I go to advanced settings for hadware in the config tab of my viclient it is giving warnings about affecting normal host boot and only being able to dedicate the host to a specific vm, etc.
It does not allow me to configure passthrough.
And there are no devices listed.
Can someone please help me better understand what this should mean to me?
I dont wish to use this option, i have read that many features such as vmotion and storage motion etc become unavailable when using this feature (which makes sense).
So....can i just disable this? If so, how? I really just don't want to see this error anymore, and I'm concerned i may be missing something.
Thanks in advance.
