  • Automated deployment of a private monitoring network
    Patent number: 10958557
    Abstract: A processor, based on detection of a configuration change to a central electronics complex (CEC) in a CEC group, automatically creates a monitoring network within the CEC. Automatically creating the monitoring network includes the processor issuing a request via a hardware management console (HMC) to the CEC to create a virtual switch implementing a virtual local area network (VLAN). The processor also issues a request via the HMC to the CEC to create, on a virtual input-output server (VIOS) hosted in the CEC, a virtual trunk adapter connected to the VLAN. In addition, the processor issues a request via the HMC to the CEC to create, on each of a plurality of logical partitions (LPARs) hosted in the CEC, a virtual network adapter connected to the VLAN. The processor can employ the network, for example, to monitor health of the LPARs and VIOS within the CEC via the HMC.
