Processor operations monitors and controls processor hardware and VM guest systems operations.

It provides a connection from a focal point system to a target processor Support Element or a Hardware Management Console. With NetView on the focal point system, processor operations automates operator and system consoles for monitoring and recovering target processors.

Processor operations performs or automates many operator tasks, usually done using the HMC, such as activate / deactivate a logical partition, power on and off, and reset of multiple target processors. You can initiate IPLs and respond to system startup operator prompt messages, monitor status, and detect and resolve wait states.
