Restoring a Complex Profile
You can restore a previous complex profile configuration, which
effectively allows you to undo your last partition configuration change.
Restoring the previous complex profile allows you to revert to the
previous complex configuration—including all partition
configurations—that existed before you made your last change.
Because restoring a prior complex profile requires shutting down all
partitions, you should use this procedure only when absolutely
necessary.
GSP The following procedure restores the prior complex configuration that
existed before you made your last partition configuration change.
Step 1. Ensure that all partitions within the complex are in a ready-for-reconfig
state.
You can put the partition into a ready-for-reconfig state by using the
shutdown -R -H command, the BCH interface’s RECONFIGRESET
command, or using the GSP command menu’s RR command.
Step 2. Log in to the Superdome server’s Guardian Service Processor (GSP).
Log in as a user with Administrator privileges, which are required for
restoring the previous complex profile configuration.
Step 3. Enter the GSP command menu.
From the GSP main menu, enter CM to access the command menu.
You can perform this task using the GSP menus.
