In what state do you want the power? (ON/OFF) Power cells and I/O chassis on and off You can control power for cells and I/O chassis from remote locations, without physically accessing the system hardware. NOTE On HP nPartition systems, powering on a cell also powers on any I/O chassis attached to the cell, and powering off a cell also powers off any I/O chassis attached to the cell. Powering on or off an I/O chassis connected to a powered-on cell causes the cell to reset if the cell located and mapped the I/O chassis during its cell boot process. The frupower command and Partition Manager permit you to power on or off inactive cells and I/O chassis that are assigned to the current nPartition or are not assigned to any nPartition. The PE command at the management processor Command menu permits you to power on or off any hardware in the complex, including active cells and I/O chassis. The PE command does not check the current usage of components. Power on or power off cells and I/O chassis using the following procedure: Powering cells and I/O chassis on and off [par commands] From the command line, use the frupower -o -c# and frupower -f -c# commands to power on and power off cells (and their associated I/O chassis). Step 1. Login to Windows on the Management Station PC. To manage power for a cell, you must login to the nPartition to which the cell is assigned. If the cell is not assigned to an nPartition, you can manage its power from any nPartition. Step 2. Use the frupower command to turn on or turn off the cell power. Specify the frupower -f -c# command to power off a cell. (-c#). This also powers off any I/O chassis connected to the cell. NOTE You must include the correct remote administration options when issuing par commands (-h and -g for IPMI over LAN connections; -h and -u for WBEM/WMI connections). For a complete explanation of these options, refer to the command description in "nPartition Commands Reference" on page 109. Specify the frupower -o -c# command to power on a cell (-c#). This also powers on any I/O chassis connected to the cell. The following example shows several sample frupower commands and their results. 104 Chapter 4

I - IO Chassis
Select Device: b
Enter cabinet number: 1
The power state is ON for Cabinet 1.
In what state do you want the power? (ON/OFF)
Power cells and I/O chassis on and off
You can control power for cells and I/O chassis from remote locations, without physically
accessing the system hardware.
NOTE
On HP nPartition systems, powering on a cell also powers on any I/O chassis attached to
the cell, and powering off a cell also powers off any I/O chassis attached to the cell.
Powering on or off an I/O chassis connected to a powered-on cell causes the cell to reset if
the cell located and mapped the I/O chassis during its cell boot process.
The
frupower
command and Partition Manager permit you to power on or off inactive
cells and I/O chassis that are assigned to the current nPartition or are not assigned to
any nPartition.
The
PE
command at the management processor Command menu permits you to power on
or off any hardware in the complex, including active cells and I/O chassis. The
PE
command does not check the current usage of components.
Power on or power off cells and I/O chassis using the following procedure:
Powering cells and I/O chassis on and off [par commands]
From the command line, use the
frupower -o -c#
and
frupower -f -c#
commands to
power on and power off cells (and their associated I/O chassis).
Step 1.
Login to Windows on the Management Station PC.
To manage power for a cell, you must login to the nPartition to which the cell is assigned.
If the cell is not assigned to an nPartition, you can manage its power from any
nPartition.
Step 2.
Use the
frupower
command to turn on or turn off the cell power.
Specify the
frupower -f -c#
command to power off a cell. (
-c#
). This also powers off
any I/O chassis connected to the cell.
NOTE
You must include the correct remote administration options when issuing par commands
(
-h
and
-g
for IPMI over LAN connections;
-h
and
-u
for WBEM/WMI connections). For
a complete explanation of these options, refer to the command description in “nPartition
Commands Reference” on page 109.
Specify the
frupower -o -c#
command to power on a cell (
-c#
). This also powers on any
I/O chassis connected to the cell.
The following example shows several sample
frupower
commands and their results.
