6.2 Viewing partition properties
Some of the information concerning a partition is common to the properties of both the
partition and the partition profile. In other cases, specific information can only be found in one
of the two places.
6.2.1 Partition properties
To access the properties for a partition, access the LPAR functions menu and select
Properties. Ceasing the LPAR functions menu is discussed in 6.1, “Accessing LPAR
functions” on page 178.
General
As shown in Figure 6-3, the General tab displays basic information about a logical partition.
The partition Name and ID are values that were assigned during partition creation. The
partition Environment identifies what type of operating system is installed on the partition,
and the OS version identifies which release of that operating system.
If the partition is active, IPL’d, the Current profile reflects which partition profile was specified
when the partition was activated. The System value reflects the machine type/model and
serial number of the managed system that contains this partition. Partition status is reflected
in the State of the partition. Some common states are shown in Table 6-1.
