<h1 class="topictitle1">Manage security for logical partitions</h1>
<div><p>Understand who has authority to perform logical partition tasks
and how to restrict access to the system.</p>
<p>Most security related tasks you perform on a partitioned system are the
same as on a system without logical partitions. However, when you create logical
partitions, you work with more than one independent system. Therefore you
will have to perform the same tasks on each logical partition instead of just
once on a system without logical partitions.</p>
<p>Here are some basic rules to remember when dealing with security on logical
partitions:</p>
<ul><li>You must first configure the service tools server in order to access the iSeries™ Navigator
logical partition functions. For more information on the service tools server,
refer to <a href="../rzamh/rzamhsrvtoolsrvr.htm" target="_blank">Configure
the service tools server</a> .</li>
<li>Users performing logical partition operation or administration authority
will require a Service Tool user profile in the primary partition. </li>
<li>You add users to the system one logical partition at a time. You need
to add your users to each logical partition you want them to access.</li>
<li>Partitions cannot see or use memory and disk units of another logical
partition.</li>
<li>Partitions can only see their own hardware resources.</li>
<li>The iSeries Navigator
logical partition function can see all system hardware resources in the Configure
Partitions window by selecting All hardware when used from the primary partition.
When used from secondary partitions, only the resources assigned to the partition
are viewable. In either partition, users require logical partition operation
or administration authority to view information.</li>
<li>The system control panel controls the primary partition. The remote control
panel controls all partitions on the server. When any partition is set to
secure, no actions can be performed from either the system panel, the remote
control panel, or the Work with Partitions Status display from SST. To force
DST from the system control panel or the remote control panel, you must change
the mode to Manual. <ul><li>You can use the remote control panel to power on and power off the partition.</li>
<li>You can use the remote control panel to set the secondary partition mode
from secure to any other value.</li>
</ul>
<p>Once a secondary partition's mode is no longer secure, you can use
the remote control panel to change the partition status.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>For more information on security on your iSeries server, refer to <a href="../books/sc415302.pdf" target="_blank">iSeries Security-Reference</a> <img src="wbpdf.gif" alt="Link to PDF" /> and <a href="../rzamv/rzamvplansec.htm">Plan and set up system security</a> for additional information
on security.</p>
