Setting deconfiguration policies

Set various processor and memory configuration and deconfiguration policies.

You can set various policies to deconfigure processors and memory in certain situations. You can enable policies that deconfigure the processor when failures occur, such as a predictive failure (for example, correctable errors generated by a processor exceeding the threshold) or a functional failure. You can also enable the firmware to power off a processing unit (node) for concurrent maintenance when any of the resources in that node are deconfigured.

To set the deconfiguration policies, you must have one of the following authority levels. Any user can view the deconfiguration policies.

Administrator
Authorized service provider

To set deconfiguration policies, complete the following steps:

On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
In the navigation area, expand System Configuration and Hardware Deconfiguration.
Select Deconfiguration Policies.
In the right pane, select Enabled or Disabled for each policy.
