Cases Where Logging Occurs Below are the cases where logging does occur: • Commands which change and/or affect the state of partitions. These commands include parcreate, parmodify, parremove, vparboot, vparcreate, vparenv, vparremove, vparmodify, and vparreset. Constraints and Restrictions to Logging Note the following: • The command line text will be logged on only the partition from which the command was executed. The logging of the command will not be duplicated to the target syslog file (the syslog file of the target partition. For example, if the vparmodify command is executed from vPar1 with the target partition being vPar2 (vparmodify -p vPar2 ...), the syslog entries will only appear in the log file of vPar1. Nothing will appear in the log file of vPar2. • The command line text for partition commands executed from the OS is not duplicated in the syslog of the OA. The OA syslog reflects only the commands run from OA. The OS syslog reflects only commands run from the OS. • Error messages from the failure of a partition command execution are not logged. Ordering and Licensing This section describes the ordering and licensing of the HP-UX Virtual Partitions software itself, as well as software that runs within the vPars (the HP-UX 11i Operating Environment, and the HP-UX 11i application software). nPartitions Licensing nPartitions does not require any licensing. When you license a software product to run on an HP server, you may need to provide machine or system details to the software vendor as part of the software registration process. This section describes how to obtain information you may need when licensing non-HP software to run on an HP Superdome 2 server. For complete information about software product licensing, refer to the company that manufactures or sells the software you plan to use. Virtual Partitions Licensing On HP Integrity Superdome 2 servers, the HP-UX Virtual Partitions (vPars) product which enables managing vPars from HP-UX is sold on a per-socket licensing basis. Therefore, you purchase the same quantity of this product as the number of active sockets in your nPartitions (or non-nPartitioned server) that will be running vPars. If you later purchase additional processing sockets, you must also purchase the corresponding number of per-socket licenses of vPars. You can purchase vPars: 1. As part of the HP-UX 11i v3 Virtual Server environment-OE (VSE-OE) 2. As part of the HP-UX 11i v3 Data Center-OE (DC-OE) 3. As part of the Insight Dynamics - VSE Suite 4.

Cases Where Logging Occurs
Below are the cases where logging does occur:
•
Commands which change and/or affect the state of partitions.
These commands include
parcreate
,
parmodify
,
parremove
,
vparboot
,
vparcreate
,
vparenv
,
vparremove
,
vparmodify
, and
vparreset
.
Constraints and Restrictions to Logging
Note the following:
•
The command line text will be logged on only the partition from which the command was
executed. The logging of the command will not be
duplicated
to the target
syslog
file (the
syslog
file of the target partition.
For example, if the
vparmodify
command is executed from
vPar1
with the target partition
being
vPar2
(
vparmodify -p vPar2 ...
), the
syslog
entries will only appear in the
log file of
vPar1
. Nothing will appear in the log file of
vPar2
.
•
The command line text for partition commands executed from the OS is not duplicated in
the syslog of the OA. The OA syslog reflects only the commands run from OA. The OS syslog
reflects only commands run from the OS.
•
Error messages from the failure of a partition command execution are not logged.
