Listing Cell Partition Assignments

Each cell in a Superdome complex is either assigned to a partition, or it

is unassigned (it is on the “free cell list”).

This section presents a method for listing all cells in a Superdome

complex and their partition assignments (if any).

HP-UX This procedure uses the parstatus HP-UX command to list all cells in a

Superdome complex along with any partition assignments.

Step 1. Log in to HP-UX running on one of the Superdome complex’s partitions.

Step 2. Issue the parstatus -C command to list all cells, any I/O chassis

connections, and any partition assignments for the cells.

In addition to reporting the cells’ partition assignments (listed in the

“Par Num” column), the parstatus command reports each cell’s current

status (absent, inactive, active core, active base) in the “Actual Usage”

column.

For cells that are not assigned to a partition, parstatus lists a hyphen

(-) in the “Par Num” column instead of the cell’s partition number.

You can perform this task using HP-UX commands.
