Avoid a user who needs to restart an lpar from operating on the CPC

If a user who has to do actions against some LPAR objects (as "Load", "Activate" or "Deactivate") has access to object "CPC" can do any of this actions against the whole CPC.

    Juergen Klaus is spot on with his response. Please see User Management videos on YouTube for more information -> https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLezLS0Tuqb-4Ibkw2bZA867-u0DrtYXVo

    If I understand right, you want to have a reduced lpar view for some users. Or with other word your users should see only the Lpars they have to. You can do so, right now. But therefore some work has to be done. You have the possibility to define for each user which Lpars or CPC he can see. We have done this years a ago for a customer who wants to ipl his Lpars on his own. So we gave them some users where only their Lpars are defined.
    Define a role in the "user management" task at hmc. There you can restrict the access to the set of Lpars you want and what tasks the user should can do. Then define a user with this role. That's it.
