Chapter 9. Migration of existing LPAR profiles to HMC 279
Figure 9-38 xTerminal session window
4. After the LPAR configurations are migrated (Figure 9-39), correct any resource
reallocations resulting from P0/Primary being reassigned. Allocate new hardware
resources as required. Validate the new Pn+1 partition (former primary) against the
configuration and resource allocation documentation gathered in early steps. Refer to
Chapter 5, “Partition creation using the HMC” on page 139, for detailed instructions for
allocating resources and creating new partitions.

5. After all allocations have been made and partition profiles verified, the partitions can be
activated. In both of the scenarios listed earlier, all partitions moved over intact.
9.5 Backing up HMC profiles
As with any new install, migration, or upgrade, getting a backup of the new information is
critical. In the following sections, we describe how to obtain the backup.
Important: Before you can activate the former Primary partition in both scenarios, it will be
necessary identify the new locations of all resources that were in the original System Unit
in the
Tagged I/O tab of the HMC P2 Profile (Load source disk, IOA with other disk, and
console IOA, etc.). For more information, refer to the HMC Profile and Partition Profile
creation in Chapter 5, “Partition creation using the HMC” on page 139.
