nPartition commands messages
The following messages are written to standard output by the commands. This list does
not include messages resulting from syntax errors, or errors caused by attempting a
change that is not valid for the current configuration (for example, removing a cell from
a partition when the cell was not assigned to that partition in the first place). Those
messages are generally self-explanatory.

Message Cause Recommended Action
Cannot connect. 1. The nPar Provider you
are attempting to use is
not running. If using the
-h option, check your local
management system's
nPar provider. If you are
using the -u option, verify
the nPar provider on the
remote target nPartition.
2. MP is not available on
the network.
3. MP settings are
incorrect.
1. Make sure the nPar
Provider component is
installed. On Windows,
verify the nPar provider
service is running using
the
Start > Control Panel >
Administrative Tools >
Services
applet.
2. Verify you have network
connectivity by telnetting to
the MP and successfully
logging in.
3. Telnet to the MP. Enter
Commands Menu and
enable IPMI LAN access
with the SA command, and
set an IPMI password with
the SO command.
Unsupported platform. 1. Command was run on
the local system, which is
not a partitionable server.
2. With -u and -h options,
target host is not a
partitionable server.
1. Use the -g and -h options
or the -u and -h options to
specify a partitionable
complex as the target of the
operation.
2. Specify the hostname or
IP address of an nPartition.
The nPartition
Configuration Privilege
of the target complex is
restricted.
The MP is set to disallow
changes to the
configuration of any
nPartition except the one
from which the request is
made.
This can only occur when
using the -u option. In that
case, specify the nPartition
that will be altered as the
target in the -h option.
