HP-UX This procedure (parstatus -C) lists all cells in a server complex and
their partition assignments.
Step 1. Log in to HP-UX running on one of the server complex’s partitions.
Step 2. Issue the parstatus -C command to list all cells, any I/O chassis
connections, and any partition assignments for the cells.
In addition to reporting the cell partition assignments (listed in the “Par
Num” column), the parstatus -C command reports each cell’s current
status (absent, inactive, active core, active base) in the “Actual Usage”
column.
For cells that are not assigned to a partition, parstatus -C lists a
hyphen (-) in the “Par Num” column instead of the cell’s partition
number. The “Connected To” column lists any I/O chassis connections for
the cells, and “Core Cell Capable” lists whether core I/O is available
through each the cell’s I/O chassis.
Partition Manager This procedure (selecting each partition and Available Resources on the
left side of the primary window) lets you view all cell partition
assignments in a server complex from Partition Manager.
Step 1. Run Partition Manager (/opt/parmgr/bin/parmgr) or access it from
SAM or a Web browser.
Step 2. At the Partition Manager primary window, select each nPartition on the
left side of the window to list the partition’s cell assignments on the
