Re: Server IPL on a non-HMC system

Granted I work on an HMC controlled system.

In my environment a PWRDWNSYS *IMMED RESTART(*NO) does not power down the 
whole frame - just a particular lpar.  So a PWRDWNSYS *IMMED RESTART(*YES) 
would not qualify as a "server IPL".  I'd have to IPL the whole frame and 
not just a particular lpar.  Now, just because you don't have a hmc 
doesn't mean your machine is still not thinking lpar.  After all, you can 
have 1 i5/os lpar and a number of linux lpar's and still be a non hmc 
controlled system.  Although I am not sure how one controls the whole 
server without an HMC - maybe with ASMI?
