Creating a Partition specification You can create a parspec using the following command in the OA CLI: • parcreate -C PartitionSpec:[:create_partition_flag] Where PartitionSpec is the name of the parspec to be created. The create_partition_flag can take the following values: ◦ y - the corresponding nPartition is created. ◦ n - the corresponding nPartition does not get created. This is the default. NOTE: ◦ The -C option creates only a partition specification. ◦ All user supplied arguments to parcreate that are used to define an nPartition may be used to create a parspec.
