How to rename an LPAR

How to activate (turn on) an LPAR

activate, and press Enter. Move the cursor over "Activate" on the displayed
sub-screen and press Enter.

activate on the displayed sub-screen and press Enter.
How to deactivate (Turn off) an LPAR
Note:
•
LPAR deactivation is equivalent to server power-off. So, care is necessary
in performing this operation. Especially, if this operation is performed
during data access (such as during start of a guest OS), a disk may be
damaged. You are strongly recommended to shutdown the guest OS
instead of deactivation.
•
When shutting down a guest OS operating on an LPAR, the guest OS
might be hang up in the final process. In such a case, deactivate the
LPAR. (As the connection between an LPAR and a disk has been
disconnected, the disk data is not destroyed)
