Applying a profile to a logical partition

On a Hardware Management Console (HMC) that is at Version 7 Release 7.8.0, or later, you can apply a profile to a logical partition without powering on the logical partition by using the HMC command-line interface.

Procedure

From the HMC command line, type the following command: 
 chsyscfg -r lpar -m managed system -o apply -n profile name
Where:
  • managed system is the name of the server on which the logical partition is located.
  • profile name is the name of the partition profile that applied to the logical partition.
