NOTE: When an nPartition is active in vPars mode, the power operations require the OVERRIDE option to change the mode. POWERON PARTITION From the CLI • Command: POWERON PARTITION {{nPartition number or name} [:vPartition number or name][OVERRIDE]} • Description: If an nPartition is specified, this command powers on the blades and IO interconnects in the nPartition and boots the nPartition to EFI. If the nPartition is in vPars mode and has vPars defined, then all the defined vPars in the nPartition are booted to EFI. If an individual vPar is specified, it is booted to EFI. If the nPartition is in nPars mode and a vPar is specified to be powered on, the OVERRIDE argument changes the mode of the nPartition to vPars, powers on the nPartition and boots the specified vPar. If the nPartition is in vPars mode and has no vPars defined, the nPartition is powered on to reach an active state. Once the nPartition is active, new vPars can be created and individually powered on to reach EFI. NOTE: If the EFI settings have been changed in the boot manager, the partition may automatically boot all the way to the OS login prompt. • Access level/Bay level: OA Administrator, OA Operator • Restriction: You must be connected to the monarch OA. From the GUI For information to poweron a partition using the GUI, see "Booting from the GUI" (page 52). REBOOT PARTITION From the CLI • Command: REBOOT PARTITION {{} [:vPar ID>] | ALL} [FORCE] [OVERRIDE] } • Description: Reboots the OS on the specified nPartition or virtual partition. The FORCE argument ungracefully reboots the OS in the specified partition. If the partition is booted to EFI, then FORCE is required. The OVERRIDE argument reboots all virtual partitions on the specified nPartition. 64 Booting and resetting Partitions (nPartitions and vPars)

POWERON PARTITION
From the CLI
Command:
POWERON PARTITION {{nPartition number or name} [:vPartition number
or name][OVERRIDE]}
Description:
If an nPartition is specified, this command powers on the blades and IO interconnects in the
nPartition and boots the nPartition to EFI. If the nPartition is in vPars mode and has vPars
defined, then all the defined vPars in the nPartition are booted to EFI. If an individual vPar is
specified, it is booted to EFI.
If the nPartition is in nPars mode and a vPar is specified to be powered on, the OVERRIDE
argument changes the mode of the nPartition to vPars, powers on the nPartition and boots the
specified vPar.
If the nPartition is in vPars mode and has no vPars defined, the nPartition is powered on to
reach an active state. Once the nPartition is active, new vPars can be created and individually
powered on to reach EFI.
NOTE:
If the EFI settings have been changed in the boot manager, the partition may
automatically boot all the way to the OS login prompt.
Access level/Bay level:
OA Administrator, OA Operator
Restriction:
You must be connected to the monarch OA.
