Restoring a Complex Profile
You can restore a previous Complex Profile configuration, which
effectively allows you to undo your last nPartition configuration change.
Restoring the previous Complex Profile allows you to revert to the
previous complex configuration—including the nPartition
configurations—that existed before you made your last change.
Because restoring a prior Complex Profile requires shutting down all
partitions to an inactive ready for reconfig state, you should use this
procedure only when absolutely necessary.
Service Processor
(GSP or MP)
This procedure (Command menu, CC command, L option) restores the
prior complex configuration that existed before you made your last
partition configuration change.
Step 1. Ensure that all nPartitions within the server complex are inactive at a
ready for reconfig state.
You can put each nPartition into a ready for reconfig state by using the
shutdown -R -H command, the BCH interface’s RECONFIGRESET
command, or using the service processor Command menu’s RR command.
Step 2. Log in to the server complex’s service processor, and enter CM to access
the Command menu.
Log in as a user with administrator privileges, which are required for
restoring the previous complex profile configuration.
