Use this panel to view the definitions for the Intelligent Resource Director. This is an optional function for the wizard.
With logical partition clustering for the Intelligent Resource Director, all partitions on a physical machine can dynamically share the machine resources (for example, control processors (CPs), storage, and so forth). Only logical partitions on that specific machine can participate in that cluster. WLM is used to manage each cluster. WLM will use coupling facility structures as part of the management for each cluster. Thus, one coupling facility structure per logical partition cluster must be defined.
The clusters are defined by physical machine, uniquely identified by type and serial number. The coupling facility structures are also named using this information. The information on this panel is used to define one structure per machine.
The following conditions must be met before you can define the logical partition clustering function:
