Managed System Properties
Use your managed system's properties panel to view your machine's configuration and capabilities.
Any user can view the properties of a managed system. However, in order to modify the managed system's properties, you must be a member of one of the following roles:
- System Administrator
- Advanced Operator
To view or modify a managed system's properties, do the following:
- Select the managed system in the Contents area.
- From the menu, choose Selected.
- Select Properties.
If you have powered on your system using the Full System Partition option, the HMC displays the system's name, partition capability, state, serial number, model and type, and policy information. A system that is powered on using the Partition Standby option displays this information as well as processor, memory, and I/O partition information, policy information, and partition assignment, if applicable.
Use the Policy tab to:
- Power off the managed system after all the partitions are powered off.
- Set the Common Service Processor Surveillance Policy. The Common Service Processor (CSP) Surveillance Policy is a program that monitors the managed system. If the CSP does not detect the HMC, it places an entry into the CSP error log. If the policy is not enabled, the CSP does not log an error when the managed system is not detected.
