This object includes the properties defined in the Base managed object properties schema,
including the operational-status-related properties, with the following class-specific
specializations:

Description of specialization |
object-uri |
— |
String/ URI |
The canonical URI path for a Partition object is of the form
/api/partitions/{partition-id}, where
{partition-id} is the value of the object-id property of
the Partition object. |
parent |
— |
String/ URI |
The canonical URI path of the hosting CPC object. |
class |
— |
String |
The class of the Partition object is "partition". |
name |
(w)(pc) |
String (1-64) |
The name of the partition. The name must be unique on a hosting CPC. The
length and character requirements on this property are the same as those described in the Base managed object properties schema.
|
description |
(w)(pc) |
String (0-1024) |
The description associated with this partition. Default: an empty
string.
|
status |
(sc) |
String Enum |
The current operational status of the managed resource. Values:
- "communications-not-active" - This status indicates that the HMC is not communicating
with the SE.
- "status-check" - This status indicates that the current status of the partition is
unknown. This state normally indicates a communication issue between the SE and the CPC.
- "stopped" - The partition is not running on the CPC. If the partition's
reserve-resources property is false, the CPC memory, processor, and adapter resources
defined for the partition are not currently allocated to it and are thus available for use by other
partitions.
- "terminated" - The partition was previously active on the CPC, but is no longer executing
the operating system because all processors have been stopped by the operating system through some
in-band action. This status may indicate that the operating system has been shut down or has
crashed . This status represents a condition between "active" and "stopped".
Although the partition is not executing the operating system, all CPC memory, processor, and adapter
resources defined for it remain allocated to it. The Stop Partition action can be
used to release the partition's non-reserved resources and place it in "stopped" status.
- "starting" - A transitional status between "stopped" and "active"
indicating that a Start Partition action has been initiated to put the partition
into execution, but processing of that action has not yet completed.
- "active" - The partition is up and running.
- "stopping" - A transitional status between "active" and "stopped"
indicating that a Stop Partition action has been initiated to stop execution of
the partition and release its non-reserved resources, but the processing of that action has not yet
completed.
- "degraded" - The partition is active and one or more resources of the partition are in a
degraded state and are not available for use.
- "reservation-error" - The partition's reserve-resources property is true
but one or more resources of the partition are in a degraded state and are not available for
use.
- "paused" - The partition was previously active on the CPC, but it is not currently
executing the operating system because all processors have been stopped by the user through HMC or SE
actions. Typically, partitions are temporarily placed in this status as part of performing diagnosis
activities on the operating system in the partition. Although the partition is not currently
executing the operating system, all CPC memory, processor, and adapter resources defined for it
remain allocated to it. The HMC or SE UI actions can be used to resume execution of the operating
system and place it in "active" status again. Alternatively, The Stop
Partition action can be used to release the partition's non-reserved resources and place
it in "stopped" status.
