Active vPars
Following are the possible run-states of an active virtual partition:
• FWBOOT. The virtual partition normally reaches this run-state while the partition is starting.
This is a transitional run-state and normally reaches EFI run-state.
• EFI. The virtual partition reaches this run-state after the firmware boot process launches the EFI
shell.
• UP. The virtual partition is in this run-state when the operating system is booting or completely
functional.
• ATTN. The virtual partition is up and in the OS, but not responding to health checks.
• UNKNOWN. The virtual partition in an unknown (error) run-state.
