Listing the Status for vPars
This section covers methods for listing the status of vPars in an HP
Superdome nPartition.
You can list vPar status details from HP-UX running on a vPar. You also
can list vPars database details for nPartitions that are not booted in vPar
mode.
In addition to the procedure listed below, you can list limited vPar status
info from the vPars monitor (the MON> prompt) by using the vparinfo
monitor command.
vPar Management: Listing vPar Status from an nPartition
This procedure lists the boot status and configuration details for vPars
that are defined in an HP Superdome nPartition.
Step 1. Login to HP-UX running on any of the vPars in the nPartition.
Step 2. Issue the vparstatus command for details about vPars.
You can list the status for all vPars, a specific vPar, or the vPars
monitor’s event log.
• To list a summary that includes the status for all currently defined
vPars, issue the vparstatus command with no arguments or
options.
• To list detailed information about a specific vPar, issue the
vparstatus -v -p vpname command.
• To display history from the vPars monitor’s event log issue the
vparstatus -e command.
The vPars monitor event log details are available only when the
nPartition is booted in vPar mode.
