Viewing the details of a simplified remote restart operation

You can view the details of a simplified remote restart operation of an AIX®, Linux®, or IBM® i logical partition, or the server by using the Hardware Management Console (HMC) command-line interface.

Before you begin

You must ensure that the server is in the Standby or Operating states when you are running the lsrrstartlpar command for server-level details. The lsrrstartlpar command can be run at the logical partition level for all system states that support the simplified remote restart feature.

Procedure

To view the details of the simplified remote restart operation of the server, type the following command from the HMC command line:
```
lsrrstartlpar -r sys -m <managed system> 
```
To view the details of the simplified remote restart operation of a logical partition, type the following command from the HMC command line:
```
lsrrstartlpar -r lpar -m <managed system> [--filter "lpar_names=" | "lpar_ids=""""]
```
To verify whether the auto cleanup feature is enabled, type the following command from the HMC command line:
```
lsrrstartlpar -r -mc <managed system> 
```
To view the configuration information of all logical partitions that support the simplified remote restart feature, type the following command from the HMC command line:
```
lsrrstartlpar -r lparcfg -m <managed system> 
```
Where lparcfg shows the logical partition configuration details from the simplified remote restart data.
You can view the possible and the recommended mappings of the virtual Fibre Channel adapters, virtual SCSI adapters, and virtual Network Interface Controllers (vNICs) of a logical partition, to Virtual I/O Servers on the destination server, by typing the following command from the HMC command line:
```
lsrrstartlpar -r virtualio -o validate  -m <source-system-name> -t <target-system-name> 
[--vniccfg <1|2> ] [-- redundantvnicbkdev <1|2>] 
[--ip <IP address>]  [-u <user ID> ]
 --filter "<filter data>"
```
Where
- virtualio lists all the available Virtual I/O adapters on the destination system that can be used for mapping virtual I/O.
- vniccfg specifies whether the vNIC configuration must be maintained. A value of 1 indicates that the vNIC configuration must be maintained. If you specify the value as 1, and if the vNIC configuration cannot be maintained, the remote restart operation fails. A value of 2 indicates that the vNIC configuration must be maintained when possible. If you specify the value as 2, and if the vNIC configuration cannot be maintained, the remote restart operation succeeds but the vNIC configuration of the logical partition is not retained after the remote restart operation completes.
- redundantvnicbkdev specifies whether the vNIC backing device redundancy must be maintained. A value of 1 indicates that the vNIC backing device redundancy must be maintained. If you specify the value as 1, and if the vNIC backing device redundancy cannot be maintained, the remote restart operation fails. A value of 2 indicates that the vNIC backing device redundancy must be maintained when possible. If you specify the value as 2, and if the vNIC backing device redundancy cannot be maintained, the remote restart operation succeeds but the vNIC backing device redundancy of the logical partition is not retained after the remote restart operation completes.
- ip is the IP address or the host name of the management console of the destination server.
- u is the user ID that must be used on the management console of the destination server.
- filter is a required parameter and only one logical partition (either partition ID or partition name) can be specified when the virtualio parameter is specified.
