On PowerVM systems, IBM AIX provides the ability to divide systems into logical partitions (LPARs). Each logical partition runs as an independent system, and you can distribute resources among partitions. Typically each system has a specialized partition named Virtual IO Server (VIOS) which virtualizes Disk resources and Network interfaces. Partitioning a system lets you account for separate computing needs while sharing virtualized resources dynamically. PowerVM systems have a Virtualization Manager Component named HMC or for low-end systems named IVM.
This section describes the IBM PowerVM management operations that you can perform from the Resources page.
The Resources page lets you view events and perform management operations on LPARs. Expand the IBM PowerVM folder in the Explore pane to list the following objects:
