Re: Virtual Partition Manager On 6.1 with VIOS

[Pete Helgren <Pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Jack,

I don't think it can be enabled and is not supported on a system that is 
managed by VIOS (IVM).

My JS12 blade is IVM managed.  When I use SST and attempt to work with 
the Partition I see the following:

                Logical Partitioning Environment Not 
Supported             
                                                           System:   
VASI5 
Virtual Partition Manager is not supported and this 
service                
function cannot be started.  The system is in a state 
that                 
does not allow this operating system to partition 
the                      
server.  Refer to the Virtual Partition Manager 
documentation              
for more 
information.                                                      


I am curious as to why you are asking the question.  Are you looking to 
create another i partition or is there another reason you ask?
