Procedure 8-11 Listing Memory Configurations (EFI Shell)
From the EFI Shell environment, use the info mem command to list memory details for the local
nPartition. Also use the dimmconfig # command (where # is the cell number) for memory
module (DIMM) details for a specific cell. The EFI Shell is available only on HP Integrity systems.
1. Access the EFI Shell environment for the nPartition whose memory configuration you want
to list.
Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select
the nPartition console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the main
EFI menu). If at another EFI menu, select the Exit option from the sub-menus until you

For additional details about memory modules (DIMMs) in an individual cell use the
dimmconfig # command (where # is the cell number).
The info mem command lists memory totals for each active cell in the local nPartition, and
includes a summary of the current interleaved memory and non-interleaved (cell local)
memory.
The dimmconfig # command shows DIMM locations, sizes, and current status for all
memory in the specified cell (where # is the cell number).
3. Exit the console and service processor interfaces if finished using them.
To exit the EFI environment type ^B (Control-B); this exits the nPartition console and returns
to the service processor Main Menu. To exit the service processor, type X at the Main Menu.
Procedure 8-12 Listing Memory Configurations (nPartition Commands)
From the command line, issue the parstatus -C command for memory summaries for all
cells; use parstatus -V -c# for detailed memory information for the specified cell (-c# where
# is the cell number); or use parstatus -V -p# for detailed memory information for the
specified nPartition (-p# where # is the nPartition number).
1. Login to a system with the nPartition commands installed.
If using remote administration features to list memory configurations, you can login to any
system with Enhanced nPartition Commands installed.
