394 Logical Partitions on System i5
Enable Workload Manager: The default value for Virtual Partition Manager is set to
2 = No, meaning that the partition is not allowed to use future workload management tool
within the partition to automatically adjust resource assignments, such as the IBM
Enterprise Workload Manager.
Virtual Ethernet Identifiers: A value of 1 indicates you are enabling one of the virtual
Ethernet communications ports for inter-partition communications between Linux or i5/OS
partitions. In this example, we changed the value for one of the ports to 1, which will create
a virtual Ethernet adapter under i5/OS with a resource type of 268C and an associated
resource name that will be used during the set up of Ethernet line description.
8. Remove CPU and memory resources, enable the i5/OS partition to take advantage of
shared processor pool and uncapped processors, and enable a virtual Ethernet port for
inter-partition communications. Press Enter. The message screen shows in Figure 13-11.
