I have a 9131-52A which is not really on the market anymore either, but I was still able to get my PowerVM license, which cost me about 400€. I am able with just 1 CPU to do micro-partitioning, have 4 LPARs running where one of them is a VIO server. The license key has to be entered in ASMI if you have no HMC. I did that and work with IVM since I do not have a HMC.
I would try to check 1st if your 9111-285, is capable of micro-partitioning and does support LPARs. If you enter the ASMI and check the licenses (don't remember the correct name), there will be all those listed, which are activated and which not. Not that you spent 400 € and can't use the license.
We had a thread over here:
