I am not talking about individual lpar names, or anything you normally see in IBM i (like in DSPNETA) but I'm talking about the whole system containing all the lpars. On my HMC I have these systems: Server-8286-41A-SN214403V Server-8286-41A-SN214405V Server-8286-42A-SN21443BV Each system contains multiple lpars. For example the 42A may have GDIHQ1, GDISYS1, GDWEB1, MAIL1, etc; the 41A-3V may have GDIHQ2, GDISYS2, MAIL2 and the 41A-5V may have MAIL3, GDWEB3... >From the command line on the HMC I can list by these names, or by type-model*serial#. For example these commands both work: lssyscfg -r lpar -m Server-8286-41A-SN214403V -F name,lpar_id,state lssyscfg -r lpar -m 8286-41A*214403V -F name,lpar_id,state The "Server..." names were from defaults. I am thinking of changing them to something more meaningful. In my case RACK1, RACK2, RACK3. It's actually really simple to do. I can't think of any negative ramifications of doing so. "Call home" won't confuse IBM, will it? Hopefully it's not keyed off of this. I may have to adjust my downtime instructions. Rob Berendt
