moving/adding CD device to an LPAR

[saucyboy]

Hi Guys

I have a P570 with 5 Lpars - the cd device i don't think has been added to any of them.
Phyiscally i can see the device.
How do I add the device to an LPAR?

look at this line of script

ssh $HMCUSER@$HMC lshwres -r io --rsubtype slot -m \"$SYSTEM\" -F drc_name:drc_index | awk -F: '$1 == "'$SLOT'" {print $2}')


This runs on HMC as this ssh to HMC there check the slot, it uses the awk command after | sign,

I just want to know how Khalid use this, on HMC as when i run awk command it gives "bash: awk: command not found"

Thanks and Regards to all

First of all, this script was provided by the IBM consultant who came to configure our P5 570s machines (abubasim) just to give him credit on that.

It seems that the awk command runs on the LPAR not on the HMC! I just tested it again with different command:

DRC=$(ssh hscroot@p5hmc ls -al | awk '{ printf $9 }')

Then i echoed $DRC and i got the list of the files!

ssh $HMCUSER@$HMC lshwres -r io --rsubtype slot -m \"$SYSTEM\" -F drc_name:drc_index | awk -F: '$1 == "'$SLOT'" {print $2}')
[/tt]

[tt]
ssh user@hmc lshwres ...[red]# this part runs from a machine via an ssh session on the hmc[/red]
| awk 'awkprogram' [red]# this part runs on the machine that you ssh from[/red]
[/tt]

there is no awk necessary on the HMC
