We've created IPL icons on the HMC so the operators just drag the icon over 
the DEACTIVATE and ACTIVATE action icons to perform these functions. 
These icons just point to load profiles.

I was hoping we could mirror this in case we ever lose the network again. That 
way the operators can just open up the box and perform their IPL actions on 
the service processor exactly the same way they do now on the HMC. That 
doesn't appear to be possible though. I haven't been able to figure out how to 
create an icon on the service processor and haven't thought through it far 
enough to know how much work it will be to keep the load profiles 
synchronized even if I could create an IPL icon.
