Re: Vary off path
As my father-in-law likes to say, when they make me king... 8-) For LPARs with no active operating system, the HMC should be able to simply vary resources logically on and off at will. For LPARs with an active operating system, the HMC should signal the operating system a request to logically vary resources on or off. The signal should include a time out value (e.g., number of seconds) and a time out action (e.g. abort/cancel, continue/force, prompt operator, etc.). The user should be able to select the time out value and time out action. However, the HMC does need to be king, and to have the option to forcibly vary resources on and off after warning the operator what may happen to his first born, etc. [i.e., override the operating system(s)].
