LPAR Detailed Settings
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
Fine grained control over LPAR settings can be achieved by setting PowerVM
|
||||
specific properties (``extra-specs``) on the flavors being used to instantiate a VM. For the
|
||||
complete list of PowerVM properties see `IBM PowerVC documentation`_.

|

|
||||
For example, to create a VM with one VCPU and 0.7 entitlement (0.7 of the physical
|
||||
CPU resource), a user could use a flavor created as follows::
|
||||
|
||||
openstack flavor create --vcpus 1 --ram 6144 --property \
|
||||
powervm:proc_units=0.7 pvm-6-1-0.7
|
||||
|
||||
In the example above ``powervm:proc_units`` property was used to specify CPU
|
||||
entitlement for the VM.
