.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP
This program is part of the lsvpd package for Linux\&. This package is a (partial) reimplementation of AIX's lsvpd and related commands\&.

.PP
 \fBlsvio\fR lists virtual I/O adapters and devices\&. \fBlsvio\fR retrieves information from \fBlsvpd\fR's hardware inventory database\&. Therefore, the \fIvpdupdate(8)\fR command must have been executed prior to running \fBlsvio\fR\&.

.SH "OPTIONS"

.TP
\-v|\-\-version
Prints the version of tool\&.

.TP
\-s|\-\-scsi
Lists names and physical locations of virtual SCSI adapters\&.

.TP
\-e|\-\-ethernet
Lists names and physical locations of virtual Ethernet adapters\&.

.TP
\-d|\-\-devices
Lists virtual SCSI devices and their associated adapters\&.

.TP
\-p<database\-filename>|\-\-path=<database\-filename>
Use <database\-filename> as the hardware inventory database, rather than the default database\&. Path specified must be a full path including filename\&. (\fI/var/lib/lsvpd/vpd.db\fR)\&.

This option is useful for producing output for previous hardware inventory databases that have been replaced by the system\&.

.TP
\-z<database\-archive>|\-\-zip=<database\-archive>
Use <database\-archive> as the hardware inventory database, rather than the default directory (\fI/var/lib/lsvpd/\fR)\&. The archive has been compressed using \fIgzip(1)\fR\&.

This option is useful for producing output for old hardware inventory databases that have been archived by the system\&.

.TP
\-D|\-\-debug
Display extra information about the devices. For example, sysfs location, device-tree node etc., is displayed\&.

.TP
\-h|\-\-help
Display a help screen and quit\&.

.SH "FILES"

.TP
\fI/var/lib/lsvpd/vpd.db\fR
Database file used by \fBlsvio\fR\&.

.SH "BUGS"


\fBlsvio\fR is supported since Linux 2\&.6 on systems with virtual I/O\&. On other systems \fBlsvio\fR will probably exit with an error message\&.
