Using Virtual Front Panels
The Virtual Front Panel (VFP) provides ways to monitor the chassis
codes for a particular nPartition or the entire server complex (all
nPartitions).
The VFP presents a real-time display of activity on the selected
nPartition(s) and it automatically updates when cell and nPartition
status change.
To access the VFP feature, enter VFP from the service processor Main
menu. To exit the VFP, type ^b (Control-b) to return to the Main menu.
When you access a Virtual Front Panel, you can either select the
nPartition whose VFP you want to view or select the system VFP to view
summary information for all nPartitions in the server complex.
When you access a service processor using a single-partition user
account, using the VFP feature enables you to view only the VFP for the
nPartition to which you have access.
