<h1 class="topictitle1">Logical partition concept: load source</h1>
<div><p>Each logical partition must have one disk unit designated as the
load source. </p>
<p>The load source contains the Licensed Internal Code and the configuration
data for the logical partitions. The server uses the load source to start
the logical partition. The server always identifies this disk unit as unit
number 1.</p>
<p>The logical partition configuration data on the load source of the primary
partition is the master copy. The server uses this copy to check the integrity
of the configuration data that it maintains on the load source of each logical
partition.</p>
<p>Any time the load source of a logical partition is erased, the logical
partition configuration data must be recovered. On a secondary partition,
the server automatically rewrites the data by using the master copy from the
primary partition. On the primary partition, you must manually recover the
configuration data.</p>
<p>When you move the load source for a logical partition to a different server
or different logical partition as a nonconfigured disk unit, you need to clear
its configuration data. This recovery action corrects configuration data problems.</p>
