8 Hardware Management Console (HMC) Case Configuration Study for LPAR Management
The memory allocated to the hypervisor is 1792 MB. When we change the
maximum memory parameter of partition P3 from 4096 MB to 32768 MB, the
memory allocated to the hypervisor increases to 2004 MB as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 3 is another example of using LVT when verifying a wrong memory
configuration. Note that the total amount of allocated memory is 30 GB, but the
maximum limits for the partitions require a larger hypervisor memory.
