Physical systems

A physical system is a complex of processors and associated memory. It also includes the communications channels and other resources used to run a single operating system image in non-partitioned mode or multiple operating system images in partitioned mode (for example, using PR/SM, MDF, or MLPF). 

UIE/VM assigns a unique name to each physical system, using the following format:

PSYSnnnn

nnnn represents the last four digits of the CPU serial number.

You might prefer to give the physical system a more meaningful name than PSYSnnnn. You can override the default PSYSnnnn name, using the PSYS command in the Commands panels.  For more details, see PSYS-UIE-VM.

Logical systems

A logical system is a copy of an operating system running on one of the physical systems. A logical system is defined by its System ID (SID).
