184 Logical Partitions on System i5
6.2.2 Partition profile properties
This section covers the properties available for partitions through the tabs at the top of each
properties pane.
General
As with the General tab for partition properties in Figure 6-3 on page 180, the partition
profiles General tab (Figure 6-8) displays some basic information about a partition profile.
The System Name is the managed system that contains this partition and partition profile.
Partition ID, Partition Name, and Partition environment, are identical to what is displayed
on the General tab for partition properties (6.2.1, “Partition properties” on page 179). Profile
name reflects the name of the selected profile.

Memory
The Memory tab (Figure 6-9) displays information about the profile’s memory configuration. If
desired, changes to the profile’s memory configuration can be made here. These are not
dynamic LPAR (DLPAR) changes and will take affect when this profile is next restarted. For
DLPAR memory changes, refer to the memory portion of 6.4, “Performing dynamic LPAR
(DLPAR) functions” on page 195.
The concepts of minimum, desired, and maximum memory are discussed in 5.2.6, “Partition
memory” on page 148.
