Service Processor
(GSP or MP)
This procedure (service processor Command menu RS command) resets
an nPartition using the service processor.
Step 1. Log in to the server complex’s service processor (GSP or MP) and access
the Command menu.
After logging in to the service processor, enter CM to select the Command
menu.
Step 2. At the Command menu, enter the RS command, specify which nPartition
is to be reset, and confirm whether to reset it.
The Command menu’s RS command resets all active cells in the
nPartition and reboots them past partition rendezvous to BCH or
HP-UX.
Be certain to correctly select which nPartition to be reset.
If you are accessing the service processor using a single-partition-user
account, the RS command selects which nPartition is to be reset: the
partition that your account allows you to access.
