2. Issue the shutdown command with the appropriate command-line options. The command-line options you specify dictate the way in which HP-UX is shut down, whether the nPartition is rebooted, and whether any nPartition configuration changes take place (for example, adding or removing cells). Use the following list to choose an HP-UX shutdown option for your nPartition: • Shut down HP-UX and halt the nPartition. On cell-based HP Integrity servers, the shutdown -h command puts an nPartition into the shutdown for reconfiguration state; for details, refer to the discussion of shutdown -R -H in this list. • Shut down HP-UX and reboot the nPartition. Issue the shutdown -r command to shut down and reboot the nPartition. On cell-based HP Integrity servers, the shutdown -r command is equivalent to the shutdown -R command. • Perform a reboot for reconfiguration of the nPartition. Issue the HP-UX shutdown -R command to perform a reboot for reconfiguration. This shuts down HP-UX, reconfigures the nPartition if needed, and reboots the nPartition. • Reboot the nPartition and put it into the shutdown for reconfiguration state. Use the HP-UX shutdown -R -H command to hold the nPartition in the shutdown for reconfiguration state. NOTE: On Superdome SX2000 PA, Shutdown -R -H does not stop at BIB if the MP has been hot swapped since the last reboot. NOTE: On HP Integrity servers you should reset an nPartition only after all self tests and partition rendezvous have completed. For example, when the nPartition is inactive (all cells are at BIB) or is at EFI. This leaves the nPartition and all its cells in an inactive state (the nPartition can be reconfigured remotely). To reboot the nPartition, you must do so manually by using the BO command at the management processor Command Menu. If HP-UX is halted on the nPartition, thus not allowing you to use the shutdown command, you can reboot or reset the nPartition by issuing commands from the management processor Command Menu.

Issue the

shutdown

command with the appropriate command-line options.

The command-line options you specify dictate the way in which HP-UX is shut down,

whether the nPartition is rebooted, and whether any nPartition configuration changes take

place (for example, adding or removing cells).

Use the following list to choose an HP-UX shutdown option for your nPartition:

•

Shut down HP-UX and halt the nPartition.

On cell-based HP Integrity servers, the

shutdown -h

command puts an nPartition

into the shutdown for reconfiguration state; for details, refer to the discussion of

shutdown -R -H

in this list.

•

Shut down HP-UX and reboot the nPartition.

Issue the

shutdown -r

command to shut down and reboot the nPartition.

On cell-based HP Integrity servers, the

shutdown -r

command is equivalent to the

shutdown -R

command.

•

Perform a reboot for reconfiguration of the nPartition.

Issue the HP-UX

shutdown -R

command to perform a reboot for reconfiguration.

This shuts down HP-UX, reconfigures the nPartition if needed, and reboots the

nPartition.

•

Reboot the nPartition and put it into the shutdown for reconfiguration state.

Use the HP-UX

shutdown -R -H

command to hold the nPartition in the shutdown

for reconfiguration state.

NOTE:

On Superdome SX2000 PA,

Shutdown

–

does not stop at BIB if the MP

has been hot swapped since the last reboot.

NOTE:

On HP Integrity servers you should reset an nPartition only after all self tests

and partition rendezvous have completed. For example, when the nPartition is inactive

(all cells are at BIB) or is at

EFI

This leaves the nPartition and all its cells in an inactive state (the nPartition can be

reconfigured remotely).

To reboot the nPartition, you must do so manually by using the

command at the

management processor Command Menu.

If HP-UX is halted on the nPartition, thus not allowing you to use the

shutdown

command,

you can reboot or reset the nPartition by issuing commands from the management processor

Command Menu.
