    Hi,

    I wonder how I make a change for Lpar profile?

    The lpar profile is

    name=LPAR1,profile_name=normal,lpar_env=aixlinux,all_resources=0,
    min_mem=1024,desired_mem=9216,max_mem=9216,
    proc_mode=shared,min_proc_units=0.3,desired_proc_units=1.0,
    max_proc_units=3.0,min_procs=1,desired_procs=3,max_procs=3,
    sharing_mode=uncap,uncap_weight=128,lpar_io_pool_ids=none,
    max_virtual_slots=10,
    "virtual_scsi_adapters=6/client/4/vio1a/11/1,7/client/9/vio2a/11/1",
    "virtual_eth_adapters=11/0/53//0/1/ETHERNET0,12/0/81//0/1/ETHERNET0,13/0/53//0/1/ETHERNET0",
    boot_mode=norm,conn_monitoring=1,auto_start=0,
    power_ctrl_lpar_ids=none,work_group_id=none,shared_proc_pool_util_auth=1
    how do I change the "virtual_eth_adapters=11/0/53//0/1/ETHERNET0,12/0/81//0/1/ETHERNET0,13/0/53//0/1/ETHERNET0" to "virtual_eth_adapters=11/0/44//0/1/ETHERNET0,12/0/40//0/1/ETHERNET0,13/0/44//0/1/ETHERNET0" ?

    if I need to make a backup for the profile before changing, how do I do this too?
    thanks

    thank you, Orphy

    however I have to use command line in HMC to do this change, but not sure what commands I can use?

    Try this:
    
    chsyscfg -m XXXX -r prof -i 
    "lpar_name=LPAR1,name=normal,virtual_eth_adapters=\"11/0/44//0/1/ETHERNET0,12/0/40//0/1/ETHERNET0,13/0/44//0/1/ETHERNET0\""
