Abstract
In a computer system having memory, at least one processor and a physical input-output adapter, the at least one processor generates logical partitions, including local logical partitions and an input-output logical partition. The logical partitions have respective local virtual adapters. The input-output logical partition has a shared virtual adapter configured to communicate with the physical input-output adapter, such that a plurality of the local logical partitions share the physical input-output adapter via the shared virtual adapter. The at least one processor provides communication for ones of the local virtual adapters of the local logical partitions directly with the physical input-output adapter by a hypervisor.
