Using HP-UX nPartition

Conﬁguration Commands

HP-UX 11i provides you with several HP-UX commands for conﬁguring

and managing nPartitions and related server hardware.

The nPartition commands include: parcreate, parmodify, parremove,

parstatus, parunlock, fruled, and frupower. Table 1-5 on page 86

describes each of these commands.

Using these commands you can create, modify, monitor, and remove

nPartitions; get detailed server hardware information; and manipulate

attention indicators (LEDs) and power.

When using these commands, you can specify cells and I/O chassis with

the notations shown in Specifying Cells and I/O Chassis to Commands

on page 87.

NOTE The HP-UX nPartition conﬁguration commands are supported only on

HP servers that support nPartitions.

These commands are supported by HP-UX kernels built with nPartition

support enabled (the hd_fabric driver), and they use the libfab.1 library.
