    Hi Folks,

    Let me explain my scenario:

    • I have a P520 with two Lpars (managed by HMC), one of them with AIX 5L and working fine
    • the Other Lpar, I like to install VIOS and them create new other virtual lpars on them, but i don´t
    have the option to create LPAR with VIOS.
    • I went to this link http://www-912.ibm.com/pod/pod input my server info and get the POWERVM (VET) activation code.
    • But even with this activation code, don´t show to me the VIOS option when creating a new LPAR.

    Anybody can help me?

    Thanks in Advance

    most probably your VET code is only Express PoverVM - it allows virtualizing only via IVM and server can;t be HMC attached (means must be detached / unconfigured completly from HMC managing).
