Logical partition isolation

This control reserves reconfigurable unshared channel paths for the exclusive use of an LP. Channel paths assigned to an isolated LP are not available to other LPs and remain reserved for that LP when they are configured offline.

Use the Release task to release an unshared channel path from an isolated LP.

Use the Customize/Delete Activation Profiles task to open a reset or image profile to enable isolation for an LP. The Logical partition isolation selection is located on the Security page for the LP.

Using IOCP, you can control access to channel paths using the channel path candidate list. Access to I/O devices on shared channel path can be further controlled through the I/O device candidate list.
