LPAR manager screen operations

This section describes LPAR manager operations using terminal software.

LPAR manager screen display

Using terminal software, you can perform LPAR manager operations and operations on

each guest OS. You cannot perform LPAR manager operations and operations on

multiple guest OSes at the same time. You must switch the LPAR manager or guest OS in

order to perform operations.

The LPAR manager or guest screen that is displayed is said to be in the foreground. Other

screens are in the background. When you move a LPAR manager or guest screen into the

foreground, the screen in the foreground then will automatically move to the background.

The display of the guest screen in the background is saved by LPAR manager in the

internal buffer. When that screen becomes the foreground, it reflects to its most recent

state on the serial terminal. Even when a guest screen is in the background, it does not

lose any of the displayed information.

The following table describes main uses of each screen.
