parcreate
The parcreate command creates a new nPartition.
This command assigns the specified cells (and any attached I/O chassis) to an nPartition,
assigns a number to the new nPartition, and returns the partition number of the newly
created nPartition.
Root permission or IPMI LAN access is required to use parcreate.
Synopsis parcreate [-P PartitionName] [-I IPaddress] [-L clm_value]
-c cell:[celltype]:[use_on_next_boot]:[failure_usage][:clm] [-c...]
[-b path] [-t path] [-s path] [-r cell] [-r...] {-T flag} {-k s_lock} [-B]
[-u username:[passwd] -h IPaddress|hostname |-g [passwd] -h
IPaddress|hostname ]
•The -h... -g... options must be specified to cause the command to send its
management request using IPMI over LAN to a management processor in another
server complex (but can also be used as a “loopback access” to the management
processor in the local complex).
•The -h... -u... set of options must be specified to cause the command to send its
management request using WBEM to an nPartition other than the local nPartition
(but can also be used as a “loopback access” to the local nPartition).
The -g and -u options are mutually exclusive.
Options -P PartitionName
Specifies the name of the new nPartition.
-I IPaddress
Specifies the IP address that can be used by management tools to
address this nPartition. This value should be consistent with the IP
address used for the nPartition when an operating system is booted.
-L clm_value
Specifies the amount of the memory that will be used as cell local
memory per cell. The clm_value specified using the -c option takes
precedence over the clm_value specified using the -L option. See the
-c option for a description of the clm_value formats.
-T flag
Specifies if Hyper-Threading should be enabled (only if cell supports
this feature). By default Hyper-Threading is disabled.
The valid values for flag are:
y Enables Hyper-Threading allowing multiple threads
to run at the same time on each CPU.
n Disables Hyper-Threading. (The default.)
