484 Logical Partitions on System i5
Listing LPAR profile properties
Use the lssyscfg command to list a partition profile. Type the following command:
lssyscfg -r prof -m <managed system> -–filter "lpar_names=<partition name>,
profile_names=<profile name>"
Use the --filter parameter to specify the partition for which partition profiles are to be listed,
and to specify which profile names to list.
While the filter can only specify a single partition, it can specify multiple profile names for that
partition.
Modifying LPAR profile properties
Use the chsyscfg command to modify a partition profile’s properties. The following example
shows how to change prof1's memory amounts:
chsyscfg -r prof -m <managed system> -i"name=prof1,lpar_name=lpar3,min_mem=256,
max_mem=512,desired_mem=512"
Valid attributes, specified with the -i flag, include those shown in Table A-6.
Table A-6 Valid attributes on the chsyscfg command
Command attributes are discussed in “HMC CLI command attributes” on page 494.
Deleting an LPAR profile
Use the rmsyscfg command to remove a partition profile. Type the following command:
rmsyscfg -r prof -m <managed system> -n <profile name> -p <partition name>
Note: The partition ID can be specified instead of the partition name by using the lpar_ids
filter in place of the lpar_names filter.
name lpar_name | lpar_id new_name desired_procs
min_procs max_procs desired_mem min_mem
max_mem proc_type uncap_weight sharing_mode
load_source_slot alt_load_source_slot console_slot alt_console_slot
ecs_slot min_proc_units desired_proc_units max_proc_units
lpar_io_pool_ids io_slots boot_mode sfp_surveillance
sni_windows virtual_opti_pool_id hsl_opti_pool_id min_interactive
desired_interactive max_interactive max_virtual_slots virtual_eth_adapters
virtual_scsi_adapters virtual_serial_adapters sni_config_mode sni_device_ids
auto_ipl power_ctrl_lpar_ids
Note: Instead of entering configuration information on the command line with the -i flag,
the information can instead be placed in a file, and the filename specified with the -f flag.
Note: The partition ID can be specified instead of the partition name by using the --id
parameter in place of the -p parameter.
