RE: Quick easy way to determine what LPAR you're on? -- MIDRANGE-L

Dr Franken (Larry B) and Brian Dietz are the way I would look.

Call QLZARCAPI is part of the PRYSYSINF repository of LPAR info I keep on our LAN for reference. Every time I update PTF's, there are several steps I take:
Call QLZARCAPI, PRTSYSINF and SYSSNAP from QMGTOOLS.
Just use ACS to get the spooled files from PRTSYSINF and SYSSNAP. QLZARCAPI is a screen print I keep.

For jobd's, I wrote a small pgm that does a DSPJOBD *PRINT.
Best way to keep system info handy at the drop of a hat. Along with BRMS recovery reports.

Is there a quick and easy way, from a command line, to identify which LPAR you're on?

I thought this would be really great for the people here, since these e-mail groups are all about quick concepts and tips!

We're running out of time to get suggestions for sessions at our NAViGATE conference. This is a new concept -- 20 minute sessions, so there will be more quick learning of concepts or tips rather than in-depth learning at this one. I think this will be fun! I know that when I was working for a magazine, programming tips were always our most popular topic -- and here we have a chance to have a whole conference about them!

We need your help:

1. Please submit ideas for topics that would make a good 20 minute session 2. If you'd like to give a session, this is a great chance to get
started with an short 20 minute one.
3. If you're already a regular speaker, of course, we'd love to hear
your session.

BUT WE NEED THE SUBMISSIONS BY MONDAY, FEB 8 !! ACK!

Conference will be available for virtual access, so no travel is needed.

It might depend on what particular identifying information you're looking for.

If your LPARs have different system names, you can use DSPNETA to get the current system name.

Most IBM screens have the system (LPAR) name in the top right corner.

System: PENCOR05

Maybe a call to QLZARCAPI

James,

If you just want to know the LPAR #, you can use this little CL program:

????? PGM????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?
????? DCL??????? VAR(&RECEIVER) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(256)?????????????? ?
????? DCL??????? VAR(&FORMAT) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4) VALUE(X'00000001') ????? DCL??????? VAR(&SIZE) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4) VALUE(X'00000100')? ?
????? DCL??????? VAR(&LPARNBR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)???????????????? ?
????? CALLPRC??? PRC('dlpar_get_info') PARM((&RECEIVER) +????????? ?
?????????????????? (&FORMAT *BYVAL) (&SIZE *BYVAL))??????????????? ?
????? CHGVAR???? VAR(&LPARNBR) VALUE(%BIN(&RECEIVER 41 4))???????? ?
????? SNDPGMMSG? MSG(&LPARNBR) TOPGMQ(*EXT)??????????????????????? ?
????? ENDPGM?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?

Hope that helps,

Mark S. Waterbury

You looking for the LPAR Number from the CLI?

wrkhdwrsc *cmn

Option 7 against the first comm processor in the list. It will look similar to this:

Location : U9009.41G.104BEER-V2-C0

The number 2 after "V" is the partition number. This works on all systems from POWER5 and up.
