Re: Saving a hosted LPAR to save all.

[DrFranken <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

FURTHERMORE I moved partitions from one ASP to another with this trick:

Create the target NWSSTG in the requested ASP. Such as

CrtNwsStg ANNWSDISK  1 Format(*Open) Asp(3)

Size does not matter just the ASP(3) Parm and I cannot get myself to not 
say Format(*OPEN). :-)

Then restore the NWSSTG object ANNWSDISK with '/qfpnwsstg/ANNNWSDISK' 
and your storage is now in ASP(3).

This is DOCUMENTED Thus:

Why would they document this if it DOES NOT WORK.

Sorry they hit my irritate me button.....
