blades by lowering power state of processors. And this function automatically

Transfer
Transfer to LPAR manager environment from Basic environment
Note:
•
In Windows, if you transfer between Basic environment and LPAR
manager environment while setting a static IP address in NIC, IP address
is set in the old MAC address. And duplication errors occur due to IP
address resetting. Therefore, you need to delete IP address before
transfer to avoid the duplication error.
•
Types of NIC and MAC addresses are different between LPAR manager
environment and Basic environment. Therefore, you need to install the
driver when migrating for first time.
•
WWPN/WWNN of HBA are different between LPAR manager environment
and Basic environment. Therefore, you need to change the setting of
SANS security in the storage.
The following table shows the setting and checking items when Basic
environment is transferred to LPAR manager environment.
