Configuring and Managing Superdome Partitions
Procedures for Managing Partitions
Chapter 4 163
When you create a multiple-cell partition, you should specify the -c
option multiple times (once for each cell) issuing a single command line.
If the partition is successfully created, the parcreate command reports
“Partition Created” and reports the partition number (“partition number
is...”).
The parcreate command’s -c option is as follows:
-c cell:[cell_type]:[use_on_next_boot]:[failure_usage]
This option specifies the cell ID (cell) to be assigned to the partition.
• The only valid cell_type value is:
base Base cell (the default).
• 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)
.
For details, see the parcreate(1M) manpage or see “parcreate Command”
on page 209.
