Powering on and off scalable partitions

You can use IBM Director Console to power on and power off scalable partitions on xSeries 460 servers.

Power operation that are performed on managed objects that represent scalable partitions use out-of-band communication. Power operations that are performed on managed-system objects created from powered-on scalable partitions use in-band communication to power off the scalable partition.

Restriction: The out-of-band power operations in IBM Director 4.22 are only for use by xSeries 460 servers. Other supported servers (such as xSeries 455 and xSeries 445 servers) should install and use Scalable Systems Manager (SSM) 4.20 if needed.
