Virtual Partitions (vPars) Management on nPartitions
Tools for Managing vPars on nPartition Servers
HP System Partitions Guide: Administration for nPartitions, rev 5.1 454
The vPars monitor commands include: reboot (reboot the
nPartition), vparload (load/boot one or more vPars), scan (scan and
list all active hardware in the local nPartition), log (list recent
history from the vPars monitor’s event log), and other commands.
The vPars monitor’s MON> prompt is available when the nPartition’s
monarch processor is not assigned to a vPar that has been
loaded/booted.
• HP Superdome Service Processor (GSP) Commands
Service processor commands that reboot or reset an nPartition affect
all vPars within the nPartition.
For details, refer to the chapter Using Console and Service Processor
Interfaces on page 125.
• HP nPartition Server Chassis Log Viewer (SL)
HP vPars-related details that are accessible as HP Superdome
chassis logs include the HP-UX “heartbeat” emitted when HP-UX is
running on each vPar. Otherwise, all vPars-specific event logs are
stored in the vPars event log.
For details, see the section vPar Console and Log Use
on nPartition Servers on page 465.
