WPAR is IBM answer to Solaris Zones.
It is allowing you to have more lpras under installed aix 6.1 or 7.1 it is good for training or doing some tests. (hacmp does not work under wpars)
But at this moment it is to fresh technology I would never use it for production. A specially for some demanding SAP system

dlpi_bind
dlpi_bind(3DLPI) Data Link Provider Interface Library Functions dlpi_bind(3DLPI)
NAME
dlpi_bind - bind DLPI handle
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -ldlpi [ library ... ]
#include <libdlpi.h>
int dlpi_bind(dlpi_handle_t dh, uint_t sap, uint_t *boundsap);
DESCRIPTION
The dlpi_bind() function attempts to bind the DLPI handle dh to the SAP sap. The handle must be in the DL_UNBOUND DLPI state and will tran-
sition to the DL_IDLE DLPI state upon success. Some DLPI MAC types can bind to a different SAP than the SAP requested, in which case bound-
sap returns the actual bound SAP. If boundsap is set to NULL, dlpi_bind() fails if the bound SAP does not match the requested SAP. If the
caller does not care which SAP is chosen, DLPI_ANY_SAP can be specified for sap. This is primarily useful in conjunction with dlpi_promis-
con() and DL_PROMISC_SAP to receive traffic from all SAPs. If DLPI_ANY_SAP is specified, any transmitted messages must explicitly specify a
SAP using dlpi_send(3DLPI).
Upon success, the caller can use dlpi_recv(3DLPI) to receive data matching the bound SAP that is sent to the DLPI link associated with dh.
In addition, the caller can use dlpi_send(3DLPI) to send data over the bound SAP address associated with DLPI handle dh. The physical
address of the bound handle can be retrieved with dlpi_info(3DLPI).
RETURN VALUES
Upon success, DLPI_SUCCESS is returned. If DL_SYSERR is returned, errno contains the specific UNIX system error value. Otherwise, a DLPI
error value defined in <sys/dlpi.h> or an error value listed in the following section is returned.
ERRORS
DLPI_EBADMSG Bad DLPI message
DLPI_EINHANDLE Invalid DLPI handle
DLPI_ETIMEDOUT DLPI operation timed out
DLPI_EUNAVAILSAP Unavailable DLPI SAP
