Using the Partition Manager Utility
HP System Partitions Guide: Administration for nPartitions, rev 5.1 107
The left side of the primary window lists all nPartitions, available
resources (installed hardware that is not assigned to an nPartition), and
empty cell and I/O chassis slots. Selecting an item on the left side of the
primary window displays its details on the primary window’s right side.
Running Partition
Manager
You can access Partition Manager using any one of the following
methods.
• Run Partition Manager directly from the HP-UX command line by
issuing this command: /opt/parmgr/bin/parmgr
Command-line options are listed in the parmgr (1M) manpage.
• Run SAM (/usr/sbin/sam) in graphical mode and select Partition
Manager
to launch Partition Manager.
• Access Partition Manager through a PC Web browser.
Web access requires that an Apache Web server be installed,
configured, and activated on the nPartition where you will run
Partition Manager. See the online help’s Starting and Exiting section
for Web configuration details.
When running Partition Manager directly or when launching it from
SAM, you must set and export the nPartition system’s DISPLAY
environment variable. The DISPLAY variable specifies where (which X
server) the system displays X windows. You also must use the xhost
command on the X server to grant access for the nPartition system to
display windows on the X server.
See the example below and the X (1) and xhost (1) manpages for details.
# hostname
feshd5a
# export DISPLAY=razmataz:0
# printenv DISPLAY
razmataz:0
#
$ hostname

$ xhost + feshd5a
