Vparcreate - HP Integrity Superdome 2 16-socket User Manual

VPARCREATE

Command:
vparcreate [-p vparidentstr]
Description:
Creates a new virtual partition using the specified hardware resources. If a virtual partition
number is not specified, the command finds an available virtual partition number and assigns
it to the new virtual partition. Likewise, if a virtual partition name is not specified, a default
name of the format vParNNNN is given to the new virtual partition.
The options for the command:
Option
-p vparidentstr
-a rsrc
-Z parspecname
-N nparidentstr
[-a rsrc]... [-Z parspecname] [-N nparidentstr] [-P vp_name]
Meaning
Specifies the virtual partition to be created in ASCII
format either as a name or number. The vparidentstr
can also be specified in the format
nparidentstr:vparidentstr. When specified in
the format of nparidentstr:vparidentstr,
nparidentstr and vparidentstr can either be a name or
number. When specified from the OA, the vPar should
be identified using the format
nparidentstr:vparidentstr or used along with
the –N option. A partition name should at least have
one of the following non-numeric characters:
◦
a-z
◦
A-Z
◦
- (dash)
◦
_ (underscore)
◦
. (period)
If a -p <number> option is not specified, a vPar
number is automatically assigned to the created virtual
partition. If both and –p <name> and –P are not
specified, a vPar name in the format <vPar.vPar_num>
is automatically assigned to the created virtual partition.
NOTE:
either using –p <name> or –P . Attempts to specify the
vPar name using both options in the same command
line will be considered invalid.
Specifies resources to be added to the virtual partition.
Specifies the parspec of the nPar in which the vPar will
be created. When this option is specified all other
command options are applied to the specified parspec
and not to the nPartition itself. The –n and –z options
are mutually exclusive.
NOTE:
with –z option, there is no need of a –n option, since
the operation is being applied to a vPar in the parspec
and not to an existing nPar.
Specifies the nPar to which the vPar belongs to in ASCII
format either as a name or number. This option is
mandatory for a command invoked from OA which that
not specify –z. For commands invoked from the
partition, behavior is to create the vPar in that nPar, if
The name for the vPar should be specified
