This information is also stored in the QAPMCONF file in Collection

You can easily view this information with the Performance Data
Investigator.
The navigation path is: Performance -> Investigate Data -> Collection
Services -> Collection Services Database Files -> QAPMCONF.
Select the appropriate collection (default is most recent), then
display.
You'll find a lot of information displayed, the Partition ID being
one of them.
It's an easy way for those of us who like to display things wtih a few
clicks of a mouse.
Of course, you do need to know that navigation path to find it....

Subject: API to retrieve lpar (partition) number
Sent by: "MIDRANGE-L" <midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Is there some simple API to retrieve the lpar number? I am having an
issue with a software vendor who is having an issue with their key.
Sending them HMC screen shots is getting us nowhere.
They actually tried to get us to go into STRSST, 5. Work with system
partitions, which no one has used since, what, Power 4's?
So I thought using a service program api like
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_72/apis/dlpar_get_info.htm
would overwhelm them.
