Do these lpars have image profiles defined? Do you need to go into the HMC and config the channels offline to the offending lpars before trying to do the activate?

When trying to delete just the CHPID accesses and not the LPARs, I still get this message: / Sev Msg. ID Message Text _ E IOS500I ACTIVATE RESULTS # ACTIVATE FAILED - ERROR MESSAGE(S) ISSUED _ E REASON=01A2,CANNOT DELETE PARTITION(S) FROM CHPID # CANDIDATE LIST 00 IN IN CSS 0 # DESCTEXT=CHPID IS CONFIGURED TO ONE OR MORE AFFECTED # PARTITIONS # COMPID=SC1C3 Thanks.
