Syntax of Example Commands

The example commands at the Unix shell level in the following section use the following syntax:

<HP-UX shell prompt><command>

where the shell prompt consists of the hostname of the current virtual partition and the hash sign (#). For

example, if we log into winona1 and run the ls command, the command is shown as:

winona1# ls

If we are logged into winona1 and run the vparboot command with winona3 as the target virtual partition,

the command is shown as:

winona1# vparboot -p winona3

Example Server

Some examples in this section use the same non-cellular rp7400/N4000 conﬁguration as in the installation

chapter. See “full ioscan output of non-cellular system named winona” on page 52.

Note: unlike the rp7400/N4000, on a Superdome and other nPartition servers, the ﬁrst element of the

hardware path of the ioscan output is the cell number. For example, on the rp7400/N4000 the ioscan output

shows:

0/0 ba Local PCI Bus Adapter (782)

However, on a cellular (nPartitionable) systems, the ﬁrst element of the hardware path is the cell number. So,

if the cell number is 4, the ioscan output shows:

4/0/0 ba Local PCI Bus Adapter (782)

NOTE LBA must be explicitly speciﬁed when using vPars A.03.01 or earlier. Please read “Planning,

Installing, and Using vPars with an nPartitionable Server” on page 56.
