Using Other Tools for Managing nPartitions nPartition-level tasks - The valid use_on_next_boot values for cells are: y Participate in reboot (the default). n Do not participate in reboot. - The only valid failure_usage value is: ri (reactivate with interleave, the default). - You can specify the clm value in either of two forms: percentage or absolute amount of memory. - Percentage cell-local memory (CLM). The percent number can be any number in the range 0-100 with a suffix of %. This number is rounded to 12.5%, 25%, 37.5%, 50%, 62.5%, 75%, 87.5% or 100%. If the cell contains less than 4 GBytes of memory, then the percentage is rounded to 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%. Percentages are rounded up or down to the nearest value, but are not rounded up to 100%. - Absolute CLM specification. (The default.) The absolute number is interpreted as an absolute number of gigabytes of memory and can optionally have a suffix of GB. As needed, an absolute CLM specification is rounded up to the nearest 0.5 GBytes. If the clm value is rounded, the command reports the final value used. Step 3. Use the parmodify command to modify the configuration of the new nPartition configuration and set the nPartition name (-P), boot paths (-b, -s, and -t), and any core cell choices (-r). On HP Integrity servers, nPartition boot paths must be set from the local nPartition. When using the parmodify command, you must use the -p# option to specify the partition number for the nPartition. Use the partition number that the parcreate command reported in the previous step. # parmodify -p1 -P "hostname05" Command succeeded. # parmodify -p1 -r0/4 -r0/6 Command succeeded. # parmodify -p1 -b 4/0/1/0/0.9 Command succeeded. # When each modification takes place, parmodify reports "Command succeeded". Otherwise it reports any problems. You can specify each configuration option on a separate command line or can combine all options into a single, longer command line. Step 4. Use the parstatus -V -p# command to list all details about your newly created and configured nPartition. If any configuration details need to be modified, use the parmodify command before you boot the nPartition in the next step. Chapter 4 83

Using Other Tools for Managing nPartitions
nPartition-level tasks
Chapter 4

—
The valid
use_on_next_boot
values for cells are:
y
Participate in reboot (the default).
n
Do not participate in reboot.
—
The only valid
failure_usage
value is:
ri
(reactivate with interleave, the
default).
—
You can specify the
clm
value in either of two forms: percentage or absolute
amount of memory.
—
Percentage cell-local memory (CLM).
The percent number can be any number in the range 0–100 with a suffix of
%
.
This number is rounded to 12.5%, 25%, 37.5%, 50%, 62.5%, 75%, 87.5% or
100%. If the cell contains less than 4 GBytes of memory, then the percentage is
rounded to 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%. Percentages are rounded up or down to the
nearest value, but are not rounded up to 100%.
—
Absolute CLM specification. (The default.)
The absolute number is interpreted as an absolute number of gigabytes of
memory and can optionally have a suffix of
GB
.
As needed, an absolute CLM specification is rounded up to the nearest 0.5
GBytes.
If the
clm
value is rounded, the command reports the final value used.
Step 3.
Use the
parmodify
command to modify the configuration of the new nPartition
configuration and set the nPartition name (
-P
), boot paths (
-b
,
-s
, and
-t
), and any core
cell choices (
-r
). On HP Integrity servers, nPartition boot paths must be set from the
local nPartition.
When using the
parmodify
command, you must use the
-p#
option to specify the
partition number for the nPartition. Use the partition number that the
parcreate
command reported in the previous step.
# parmodify -p1 -P "hostname05"
Command succeeded.
# parmodify -p1 -r0/4 -r0/6
Command succeeded.
# parmodify -p1 -b 4/0/1/0/0.9
Command succeeded.
#
When each modification takes place,
parmodify
reports “Command succeeded”.
Otherwise it reports any problems.
You can specify each configuration option on a separate command line or can combine all
options into a single, longer command line.
Step 4.
Use the
parstatus -V -p#
command to list all details about your newly created and
configured nPartition.
If any configuration details need to be modified, use the
parmodify
command before you
boot the nPartition in the next step.
