No. A "standard" is to license by lpar number. The OP is probably using
those APIs to access the lpar number. He's looking for something to show
the customer that his API is not malfunctioning and that his lpar really
does have a number of 2.
While some people may have system names like
SERIAL#1 where 1 is lpar 1
SERIAL#2 where 2 is lpar 2
and SERIAL# is the system serial number. While a default, it is often not
left that way. I have 10 lpars and none of them use the system serial
number for the system name. See CHGNETA. I run that before creating the
first user profile.
I suspect the number of vendors using system name is small to negligible
compared to those using lpar number or some other means.
