[Solved] Bootting up a new LPAR

I have created a new LPAR using IVM.
I activated the LPAR, and start the window terminal (java), it prompt me for the padmin password.
After keyin the password, it will shows BOOTP parameter.

I am just wondering how come it didnt go to screen where i can select to go into SMS menu to pick the device for booting up ?

solved the problem. In the IVM, I just have to go to Partition Management > View/Modify Partitions.
Click on the properties of the partition.
Under the general tab, in the section Settings, set the boot mode to System Management Mode (SMS).

It works now. Thanks !!
