9.1.4 Displaying the IBM i partition System Reference Code
history
If the system is HMC-managed, follow these steps:
 Sign in to the HMC with a profile that has sufficient authority to manage the IBM i client
partition.
 Select the partition.
 Use the open-in-context arrow and then select Serviceability  Reference Code
History.
 To display words 2 through 9 of a reference code, select the option for that code.
If the system is IVM-managed, perform the following steps:
 In IVM, click View/Modify Partitions.
 Select the IBM i partition.
 From the More Tasks drop-down menu and select Reference Codes.
 Click an SRC to display all words.
If the system is SDMC-managed, perform the following steps:
 View the blade’s system reference codes from the SDMC welcome page.
 Select the host for the Power server
 Right-click the host and click Service and Support-> Refernce Code history.
9.1.5 Client IBM i LPARs considerations and limitations
Refer to the Considerations and limitations for i5/OS client partitions on systems managed
by the Integrated Virtualization Manager (IVM) topic in the Information Center at:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/systems/scope/i5os/topic/rzahc/rzahcbladei5limits.htm.
9.1.6 Configuring Electronic Customer Support (ECS) over LAN
A supported WAN adapter can be assigned to the IBM i client partition for ECS. Alternatively,
ECS over LAN can be configured. Refer to the Setting up a connection to IBM topic in the
Information Center at:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v7r1m0/index.jsp?topic=/rzaji/rzaji_setup.htm.
9.1.7 Backups
IBM i as a client of VIOS can use a mix of virtual and physical I/O resources. One approach is to
assign an available tape adapter on the system to the IBM i client partition and treat it as a
standard IBM i partition. The tape adapter can be any adapter supported by IBM i on IBM Power
servers and can be shared with other partitions. To assign an available tape adapter to the IBM i
client partition, refer to the Managing physical I/O devices and slots dynamically using the
HMC topic in the Logical Partitioning Guide at:
(http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/systems/scope/hw/topic/iphat/iphat.pdf).
After a tape adapter connected to a tape drive or library is available to the client partition, refer to
the Backup and Recovery topic in the Information Center to manage backups:
