Listing Cell nPartition Assignments
HP System Partitions Guide: Administration for nPartitions, rev 5.1 258
Listing Cell nPartition Assignments [HP-UX]
This procedure (parstatus -C) lists all cells in a server complex and
their nPartition assignments.
Step 1. Login to HP-UX running on one of the server complex’s nPartitions.
Step 2. Issue the parstatus -C command to list all cells, any I/O chassis
connections, and any nPartition assignments for the cells.
In addition to reporting the cell nPartition assignments (listed in the
“Par Num” column), the parstatus -C command reports each cell’s
current status (absent, inactive, active core, active base) in the “Actual
Usage” column.

For cells that are not assigned to an nPartition, parstatus -C lists a
hyphen (-) in the “Par Num” column instead of the cell’s partition
number. The “Connected To” column lists any I/O chassis connections for
the cells, and “Core Cell Capable” lists whether core I/O is available
through each the cell’s I/O chassis.

This procedure (selecting each nPartition and Available Resources on the
left side of the primary window) lets you view all cell nPartition
assignments in a server complex from Partition Manager.
