UP TO the maximum number of LPARs your system can currently support. So for a two-way it's 20, a three way, 30 etc. (You do the math. :-) )

When you create the LPAR you can assign any ID you would like as long as
it's not already in use.

We have a partition number higher than the partition count. We deleted a
partition and it kept the same number. To do so otherwise would screw up
the keys for some canned software which uses partition number for the key.

One time we upgraded a CEC. Perhaps we didn't do something right. But I
ended up rekeying the configuration for multiple lpars. Luckily I was
documented to the gills and really had no problem. We did a phantom lpar
and deleted it after creating one after it just to keep the right
partition number on that latter one.

Date: 09/19/2011 03:56 PM Subject: LPAR IDs Sent by:
midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx Saw an interesting screen shot just
now. If you're familiar with Touchtone products, you probably already
know that our authorization codes are issued for specific LPARs of
specific systems, and that as a convenience, our WRKxxxxAUT
authorization code installer utilities display the model, serial,
number of LPARs, and the LPAR ID (in hex) of the partition in which
they are being run. So this terminal session screen shot showed the
WRKVIEWINF screen for QuestView, and showed "LPARs: 31 Current
partition: 21" Given that the current partition is definitely
displayed in hex, and (so far as I can recall; it's been many years
since I've looked at the code, but we've never seen a digit higher
than 9 in it) the number of LPARs is displayed in decimal, that would
give a partition ID that's higher than the partition count. Anybody
have a clue about how or why that would happen? Are systems allowed to
have breaks in the sequence of LPAR IDs? -- JHHL
