ERRORS

OA syslog contains additional description of errors encountered during partition operations. Users can

view the OA syslog from the OA using "SHOW SYSLOG OA" command.

"Error: System unable to accept partition commands"

The above error message is printed out under the following circumstances:

• Attempting to run command from an OA other than the active OA in enclosure 1

• System has been shut down (e.g. with POWEROFF XFABRIC, or ambient overtemp)

• The OA has not ﬁnished initializing.

In the above scenarios, please ensure the system and OA are completely up and you are running the com-

mand from the active OA in enclosure 1.

vparmodify displays error messages on standard error for any of the following conditions:

An invalid option is speciﬁed.

An invalid value is speciﬁed for an option or a value is omitted.

vpar_id does not exist in the current virtual partition database.

npar_id does not exist.

new_vpname already exists in the current virtual partition database.

One or more options other than

-a, -d, -m is speciﬁed more than once.

For the

-a or -m option, an unavailable resource (allocated to another virtual partition or exceeding

the available resource limit) is speciﬁed.

For the

-m or -d option, the speciﬁed resource is not presently assigned to vpar_id .

The partition from where the command was invoked did not have sufﬁcient

parperm privileges.

The state of the modiﬁed virtual partition following an error depends on the following factors:

• If the error is detected during syntax and semantic checks of the command line, the virtual partition is

not changed.

• If the error is detected while modifying the virtual partition, then any changes made to the point of

the error (working left-to-right on the command line) will be reverted.
