dpmlpar-setresources Command--Subtract Memory Resources (Funclet)

The dpmlpar-setresources command removes memory units for IBM AIX LPARs.

This command has the following format:

dpmlpar-setresources 
-subtract_memory value 
-hmc name 
-managed_system managedsystemname 
-partition_name partitionname 
-type {dynamic|all} 
[-verbose add_commandinfo]
[-sc URL]
[-ws_remote_user username]
[-ws_remote_password password]
[-pre]
[-post]

-subtract_memory value

Defines the amount of memory to remove from the partition.

-hmc name

Specifies the Hardware Management Console (HMC) or Integrated Virtualization Manager (IVM) that controls the managed systems where the logical partition resides.

-managed_system managedsystemname

Specifies the managed system on which the logical partition resides. The managed system must exist on the HMC/IVM.

-partition_name partitionname

Specifies the logical partition to which the resources are going to be applied. The partition must exist on the managed system.

-type {dynamic|all}

Specifies whether the adjustment is temporary or permanent. Options include the following:

dynamic

Adjusts the current resources only and the adjusted values are lost when you shut down the partition.

all

Adjusts the current resources and the current profile value. The adjusted values are saved for the partition.

-verbose add_commandinfo

Provides additional information about how to execute the command.

-sc URL

Example: Subtract Memory from a Logical Partition

This example subtracts 128 MB of memory from the logical partition "lpartest01."

dpmlpar-setresources -subtract_memory 128 -partition_name lpartest01 
-hmc con02 -managed_system MSsystem1 -type dynamic

Example: Subtract Memory from a Logical Partition and Update a Profile

This example subtracts 128 MB of memory from the logical partition "lpartest01" and updates the partition profile file.

dpmlpar-setresources -subtract_memory 128 -partition_name lpartest01 
-hmc con02 -managed_system MSsystem1 -type all
