AIX - Dynamic logical partitioning

AIX - Dynamic logical partitioning
Dynamic logical partitioning feature allow resources to be moved to, from, and between running logical partitions manually without shutting down or restarting the logical partitions. This allows us to share devices that logical partitions use occasionally. For example, if the logical partitions on your server use an optical drive occasionally, you can assign a single optical drive to multiple logical partitions as a desired device. The optical drive would belong to only one logical partition at a time, but you can use dynamic logical partitioning to move the optical drive between logical partitions as needed. On servers that are managed using the Integrated Virtualization Manager, dynamic logical partitioning is supported only for the management partition. Dynamic logical partitioning is not supported on servers that are managed using the Virtual Partition Manager.
