IF you dont know the HMC name for an lpar you have to search the RSCT log files.

find /var/ct -type file -exec grep -i HscHostName {} /dev/null \;

example output..
/var/ct/567237452/log/mc/IBM.CSMAgentRM/trace:Slot info is [HscName=7315C01*0215BCA;HscIPAddr=10.15.79.137;HscHostName=aig2mc601.infra.boulder.mebs.ihost.com;RMCKey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx;RMCKeyLength=8;HmcStat=1;]



 
lsrsrc can also give you the information (at least the IP address of the HMC)

[tt]lsrsrc IBM.ManagementServer[/tt]


HTH,

Have another star p5, always on the ball with a concise solution to what some numpty dreams up as a complex solution to a non-existent problem.
 
just as an fyi, i have a little function in my .profile that does the same thing, only pretty. :)

might find it handy to add if you're in an environment like me with many hmc's.

Code:
[3896][xxxxxx]:/home/jeffq> lshmc
xxxx.com is 10.xxx.xxx.65
xxxx.com is 10.xxx.xxx.66
[3897][xxxxxxx]:/home/jeffq> declare -f lshmc
lshmc ()
{
    for i in `lsrsrc -dx IBM.ManagementServer Hostname|awk -F\" '{print $2}'`;
    do
        host $i 2> /dev/null;
        [ $? != 0 ] && echo $i;
    done
}
[3898][xxxxx]:/home/jeffq>
