The present invention provides for storing and using a stored logical partition indicia in a TLB. A partition in a microprocessor architecture is employed. A virtual page number is selected. A stored LPID indicia corresponding to the selected page number is read from a TLB. The stored logical partition indicia from the TLB is compared to a logical partition indicia associated with the employed partition. If the stored logical partition indicia and the logical partition indicia associated with the employed partition match, a corresponding page table entry stored in the translation look-aside buffer is read. If they do not match, a page table entry from a page table entry source is retrieved and stored in the TLB. If a partition is to invalidate an entry in the TLB, a TLB entry command is generated and used to invalidate a memory entry.
