nPartition Commands Reference parremove -h IPaddress|hostname -k s_lock This option is only used in combination with either the -u or -g option. IPaddress|hostname specifies the IP address or hostname of the target nPartition (-u) or management processor (-g). Specifies the lock keys for the Stable Complex Configuration Data and Partition Configuration Data provided by other system management tools that invoke this command programmatically. Command line users should avoid this option. Example In the following example, you connect to the server's management processor (MP) from your management station. The MP IP number is 192.168.24.68, and the MP password is "password". Since you are connecting remotely using IPMI over LAN, you must include the -h... -g... options with each command. You use the parstatus command first (with the -P option) to gather information about the nPartitions in the complex. After viewing that information, you delete nPartition #3 (the one named "Goldilocks"), using the parremove command (with the -F option). Finally, you issue the parstatus command again to verify the change. Step 1. Open a command window on the management station (Start > Run > type cmd > click OK). Step 2. At the command prompt, type the following: parstatus -h 192.168.24.68 -g password -P and press Enter. Step 3. After the information displays, you delete nPartition #3 (the one named "Goldilocks") by typing the following: parremove -h 192.168.24.68 -g password -p3 -F and pressing Enter. Step 4. The system indicates that now you must put the deleted nPartition into a "Shutdown for Reconfig" state for the change to take effect. Do this by issuing an RR command from the MP interface, or by logging into Windows on the deleted nPartition and issuing a "shutdown /r" command (Start > Run > type shutdown /r > OK). Step 5. After shutting down the target nPartition, verify it is no longer active by typing: parstatus -h 192.168.24.68 -g password -P and pressing Enter. The sequence of commands and results is shown here. Notice at the end how nPartition #3 is gone: C:\>parstatus -h 192.168.24.68 -g password -P Note: The -g option may require up to 2 minutes to complete. Please wait... [Partition] 122 Chapter 5

nPartition Commands Reference
parremove
Chapter 5
122
-h IPaddress|hostname
This option is only used in combination with either the
-u
or
-g
option.
IPaddress
|
hostname
specifies the IP address or hostname of the
target nPartition (
-u
) or management processor (
-g
).
-k s_lock
Specifies the lock keys for the Stable Complex Configuration Data and
Partition Configuration Data provided by other system management
tools that invoke this command programmatically. Command line
users should avoid this option.
Example
In the following example, you connect to the server’s management processor (MP) from
your management station. The MP IP number is 192.168.24.68, and the MP password is
“password”. Since you are connecting remotely using IPMI over LAN, you must include
the
-h... -g...
options with each command.
You use the
parstatus
command first (with the
-P
option) to gather information about
the nPartitions in the complex. After viewing that information, you delete nPartition #3
(the one named “Goldilocks”), using the
parremove
command (with the
-F
option).
Finally, you issue the
parstatus
command again to verify the change.
Step 1.
Open a command window on the management station (
Start > Run >
type
cmd >
click
OK
).
Step 2.
At the command prompt, type the following:
parstatus -h 192.168.24.68 -g password -P
and press
Enter
.
Step 3.
After the information displays, you delete nPartition #3 (the one named “Goldilocks”) by
typing the following:
parremove -h 192.168.24.68 -g password -p3 -F
and pressing
Enter
.
Step 4.
The system indicates that now you must put the deleted nPartition into a “Shutdown for
Reconfig” state for the change to take effect. Do this by issuing an
RR
command from the
MP interface, or by logging into Windows on the deleted nPartition and issuing a
“shutdown /r” command (
Start > Run >
type
shutdown /r > OK
).
Step 5.
After shutting down the target nPartition, verify it is no longer active by typing:
parstatus -h 192.168.24.68 -g password -P
and pressing
Enter
.
The sequence of commands and results is shown here. Notice at the end how nPartition
#3 is gone:
C:\>parstatus -h 192.168.24.68 -g password -P
Note: The -g option may require up to 2 minutes to complete.
