Alain tested: standalone (LPAR) list, backup & restore not todo: nim -o bos_inst returns 0 instantly, need to add some kind of progress checking to detect when the restore operation is done. => part of the install process

Paul: Add savevg and restvg to this module. This can have some kind of status controlling.

After some tests, NIM savevg and restvg operations are only supported for standalone machines.
