Besides adding AIX 5.2 support to WPAR's (workload partitions) AIX7 is also adding more virtual device support and security to the WPAR virtualization engine.
AIX WPAR support will add Fibre Channel support- or exporting a virtual (NPIV) or physical fibre channel adapter.Fibre channel tape systems using the "atape" driver are also
