	The first LHC Pb ion run took place at 1.38 A TeV/c per beam in autumn 2010. After a short period of running-in, the injector chain was able to fill the collider with up to 137 bunches per ring, with an intensity of 10⁸ Pb ions/bunch, about 50% higher than the design value. This yielded a luminosity of 3E25 Hz/cm², allowing the experiments to accumulate just under 10 inverse microbarn each during the four week run. We review the performance of the individual links of the injector chain, and address the main issues limiting the LHC luminosity, in view of reaching 10²6 Hz/cm² in 2011, and substantially beyond when the LHC energy increases after the long shutdown in 2013-14.

Protons are produced by a duoplasmatron source, and ions from the GTS-LHC ECR ion source. In addition, new sources are required for a new 160MeV H⁻ Linac, and development has been made on a high power RF plasma generator which could serve for a future high power Linac.
