Moving an LPAR

If your system has multiple CPCs, you can use the following procedure to move an LPAR from its current CPC to a target CPC.

Example

You might notice that the incremental cost per MSU gets much smaller as the Peak R4HA value grows. For example, assume that you have two CPCs, one with 2000 Peak R4HA and the other with 200. Moving an LPAR that uses 50 MSUs from the second CPC to the first can provide a substantial savings in your costs.

To move an LPAR to another CPC

  1. In the LPAR Actions column, click the arrow (move lpars icon.PNG) for the LPAR you want to move.The Move LPARs from cpcName dialog displays as shown in the following figure:

  2. From the list of LPARs, select the LPARs that you want to move to a target CPC.
  3. From the list of target CPCs, specify where you want to move the LPARs by selecting a target CPC.
  4. Click Move LPARs.The Planning tool applies changes to the model and performs an evaluation. When the evaluation is successful, a dialog prompts you with the option to view the evaluation results.

  5. Click Yes to view the evaluation results now, or click No to return to working on the CPC in the plan.Note that if you click No, the dialog closes and the viewer displays the results of moving the LPAR from the CPC.

    Note

    You can view the evaluation results at any time by clicking View plan evaluation results button (evaluation plan icon.PNG) in the Actions pane. For more information, see Viewing-the-Plan-Evaluation-Summary-Report.
