The LPAR Configure Power action type controls power settings on LPARs.
The Details section of the action definition contains the following fields:
Specifies the HMC/IVM that is associated with the managed server where the selected partition resides.
Specifies the name of the data center in IBM LPAR where the virtual machine resides. Select one from the drop-down list.
Specifies the partition name to be controlled.
Specifies the power operation to perform. If you select Activate, complete the following fields in the Operation Options section:
Specifies the partition profile used to activate the power settings.
Specifies the key lock mode in the partition profile. Key Lock establishes the power-on and power-off modes allowed for the system and is either manual or normal. For security reasons, it is not recommended that you set the key lock position to manual.
Specifies the boot mode in the partition profile. The system uses this boot mode to start the operating system on the logical partition unless you specify otherwise when activating the partition profile. CA Virtual Assurance supports the following valid boot modes:
Starts the logical partition as normal. (Use this option to perform most everyday tasks).
Boots the logical partition to the open firmware prompt. Service personnel use this option to obtain additional debug information.
If you select Shutdown, complete the following fields in the Operation Options section:
Shuts down the logical partition using the delayed shutdown sequence. This sequence allows the logical partition time to end jobs and write data to disks. If the logical partition is unable to shut down within the predetermined amount of time, it ends abnormally. The next restart may be longer than typical.
Shuts down the logical partition immediately. The HMC ends all active jobs immediately. The programs running in those jobs are not allowed to perform any job cleanup. This option might cause undesirable results if data has been partially updated. Use this option only after a controlled shutdown has been unsuccessfully attempted.
Shuts down the logical partition typically by issuing a shutdown command to the logical partition. During this operation, the logical partition performs any necessary shutdown activities. This option is only available for AIX logical partitions.
Shuts down the logical partition immediately by issuing a shutdown -F command to the logical partition. During this operation, the logical partition bypasses messages to other users and other shutdown activities. This option is only available for AIX logical partitions.
If you select Restart, select one option from the Operation Options section:
Specifies the partition profile used to restart the partition.
Shuts down the logical partition immediately. The HMC ends all active jobs immediately. The programs running in those jobs are not allowed to perform any job cleanup. This option causes undesirable results if data has been partially updated. Use this option only after a controlled shutdown has been unsuccessfully attempted.
Shuts down the logical partition typically by issuing a shutdown command to the logical partition. During this operation, the logical partition performs any necessary shutdown activities. This option is only available for AIX logical partitions.
Shuts down the logical partition immediately by issuing a shutdown -F command to the logical partition. During this operation, the logical partition bypasses messages to other users and other shutdown activities. This option is only available for AIX logical partitions.
Select to specify that the ticket requires approval by a third party.
