Is there some simple API to retrieve the lpar number? I am having an
issue with a software vendor who is having an issue with their key.
Sending them HMC screen shots is getting us nowhere.
They actually tried to get us to go into STRSST, 5. Work with system
partitions, which no one has used since, what, Power 4's?
So I thought using a service program api like

would overwhelm them.
