  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VIRT310 - Number of configured LPARs ?

    The SAP error message VIRT310 typically relates to issues with the configuration of Logical Partitions (LPARs) in a virtualized environment, particularly when using IBM Power Systems. This error indicates that the number of configured LPARs exceeds the allowed limit or that there is a misconfiguration in the system.

    Cause:

    1. Exceeded LPAR Limit: The number of LPARs configured in the system exceeds the maximum limit set by the hardware or licensing agreements.

    1. Review Configuration: Check the configuration of your LPARs in the IBM Power Systems management interface (like HMC - Hardware Management Console) to ensure that the number of LPARs does not exceed the allowed limit.
    2. Adjust LPAR Count: If you have more LPARs than allowed, consider consolidating workloads or decommissioning unused LPARs.
