New options added to vparstatus in 3.01 are:
vparstatus –m to show monitor status, console path, hardware path the monitor is
booted from, file system path of the monitor and vpdb file that is being used;
vparstatus –V to show vPars version;
vparstatus –e to extract the vpmon log buffer.
When migrating CPUs using vparmodify, it may not happen instantaneously. If there is a
pending reconfiguration of a CPU on a virtual partition, vparstatus will append a letter p next to
the number of CPUs in the summary output and words (migration pending) will be displayed in
the detailed output.
vparutil
The vparutil command gets and sets SCSI parameters for SCSI controllers within a running
virtual partition. When setting the SCSI parameters with the -s option, the virtual partition
owning the specified SCSI controller must be in down state. If not, the command will fail with
the appropriate error code.
vparenv (Integrity only)
Use command vparenv to set the mode on Integrity Server. Example:
# vparenv –m vPars
Set the mode to vPars for the next nPartition reboot.
# vparenv –m nPars
Set the mode to nPars for the next reboot.
