3. Verify that the AIX LPAR is ready to be moved. 

a. For this example, only a single AIX VM is needed. The VM that is moved in this case is rt11006. For this reason, unmanage all VMs except the one to be moved by running the following commands: 

ksysmgr unmanage vm rt11007 ksysmgr unmanage vm rt11008 ksysmgr unmanage vm rt11009 ... 

b. To verify that the environment is ready, run a ksysmgr  discovery and verification process: 

root:ksys7003rb.aus.stglabs.ibm.com: / > # ksysmgr discover site sitert11 verify=yes Host_group Default_HG was modified 

Running discovery on entire site, this may take few minutes... Storage state synchronization has started for Host_group Default_HG Storage state synchronization has completed for Host_group 

Default_HG Discovery has started for VM rt11006 Configuration information retrieval started for VM rt11006 Configuration information retrieval completed for VM rt11006 

Discovery has finished for sitert11 1 out of 1 managed VMs have been successfully discovered 

Site verification started for sitert11 Default_HG verification has started rt12-8286-42A-2100E5W verification has started rt11006 verification has started rt11006 verification has completed Default_HG verification has completed 

Verification has finished for sitert11 1 out of 1 VMs have been successfully verified 

Lastly, the VM is checked and shown to be READY_TO_MOVE : 

root:ksys7003rb.aus.stglabs.ibm.com: / > # ksysmgr q vm rt11006 VM: Name: rt11006 UUID: 793E27BD-0113-4A26-93FE-F8DDD5D9B3F1 Host: rt11-8286-42A-0607585 State: READY_TO_MOVE Priority: Medium skip_resource_check: No
