IBM AIX – LPM(Live Partition Mobility ) Issues / Errors
This is a Continuation post for IBM AIX – LPM ( Live Partition Utility), and this posts covers the basic diagnosis procedure required to troubleshoot the issues that occurred during LPM.
1. While doing LPM validation, if we got the below error … please follow the below steps
We need to raise a Software support call with IBM support (1800 426 7378) to generate PESH passwd
Need to provide the below output to CE (Serial Number of HMC)
userid@hmcserver12 :~> lshmc -v

SE 1110AEB (Serial Number)
Login HMC in GUI with hscroot userid & password
Change the password for hscpe & root
Go to HMC Management à select hscpe user à userà Modify / View
Repeat the same for root user also (change root passwd, cause you don’t know that one either)
Login in to HMC CLI as hscpe user
HMC:/user$ ssh hscpe@10.XX.XX.XX
Password: (which you have already changed in GUI)
hscpe@user$:~> pesh 1110AEB (Serial number of HMC)
Role = hmcpe
Password:XXXXXXX ( IBM CE will provide this passwd )
hscpe@user$:~> su – root
Password: (which you have already changed in GUI)

2. solution for 2nd lpm error (msp error ) :
Check the both frames vio’s ( data vio’s ) for move service partition
select the vio server à properties à general tab à check – move service partition & ok ( save the configuration )
