Do I need to install any drivers on LPAR-7 ?
or any .....
If possible could you please show the steps to run the commands else GUI pleae

assuming your CD/DVD is assigned as a desired (NOT REQUIRED) resource to you LPARs, then you can remove the CD/DVD drive from LPAR3 and it will be ready to assing dynamically to another LPAR which has it in its configration as desired.


regards,
rm.

I've done some scripts to remove and reassign CD or DVD to lpars.

On each partition i use this script to remove the dvd drive:

CD=`odmget -q name=cd0 CuDv | grep parent`
echo Le lecteur CD est branche sur: $CD


CD=`echo $CD | cut -d '"' -f2`
lsslot -c slot | grep $CD
SLOT=`lsslot -c slot | grep $CD | tr -s ' ' | cut -d' ' -f5`
echo DVD connected to SLOT=$SLOT

#DVD remove
rmdev -l $SLOT -R

echo The DVD was removed


--------------------------------------------------------

I also put this scrit on the HMC and i execute it with putty and ssh key authentification:

# qui detient le lecteur CD

owner=`lshwres -r io --rsubtype slot -m phoenix -F unit_phys_loc,phys_loc,lpar_name | grep U7879.001.DQD0GJA | grep T15 | cut -d ',' -f3`

drc_index=`lshwres -r io --rsubtype slot -m phoenix -F drc_index,unit_phys_loc,phys_loc | grep U7879.001.DQD0GJA | grep T15 | cut -d ',' -f1`



echo DVD is on partition $owner
echo "#########################################"
echo

# Listing OF partitions

echo "Available partitions:"
echo
lssyscfg -m phoenix -r lpar -F name
echo "#########################################"
echo


# Target definition

echo "Target partition ?"
read target
echo

# DVD move


chhwres -r io -m XXXXXXXX -o m -p $owner -t $target -l $drc_index


Note XXXXXXX is your system name
