8 Managing and Booting Virtual Partitions This chapter covers: • Switching Modes • Managing the Virtual Partitions - Creating a Virtual Partition - Booting a Virtual Partition - Modifying a Virtual Partition - Virtual Partition States - Shutting Down or Rebooting a Virtual Partition - When to Shutdown All Virtual Partitions - Removing a Virtual Partition Modes: Switching between nPars and vPars Modes Modes The mode can be set for an nPartition during creation time using the parcreate or the parmodify command. Mode switching can thus be performed from the OA CLI. For vPars usage, there are only two modes: • vPars Sets the next nPartition boot to boot into the vPars environment. This allows you to boot into vPars mode and hence boot all the virtual partitions in the nPartition. • nPars Sets the next nPartition boot to boot into the standalone environment. In this mode, you cannot boot the virtual partitions. However, you can boot any OE instance into standalone mode. For an nPartition that is already inactive, mode switch happens when the inactive nPartition is booted. Modes: Switching between nPars and vPars Modes 83
