The parstatus -V -p # command list detailed status, including the
current active core cell (“Core Cell”), and any core cell choice settings
(the “Core Cell Alternate” listings, if any).
The core cell choice preferences are listed by parstatus as the “Core Cell
Alternate” settings with “1” being the highest priority and “2” through
“4” as the lower priority core cell choices.
The parstatus core cell choice listings (1 through 4) directly correspond
to the BCH core cell choice listings (0 through 3).
Step 2. Modify the nPartition’s core cell choices using the
parmodify -p # -r # ... command.
You can modify the core cell choices for the local partition or any remote
partition in the server complex.
Use the following command: parmodify -p# -r# -r#...
Specify the partition number (-p#) and the cell ID (-r#) for all cells you
wish to designate as core cell choices.
