Setting and Checking a Partition’s Core Cell Choices
You can establish each partition’s core cell choices. The core cell and core
alternate cell settings establish which cells in the partition are preferred
to be used as the core cell.
For details about core cells, see “Types of Cells” on page 118.
BCH This procedure uses the BCH interface to set the core cell and core
alternate cell settings for a partition.
Step 1. Access the BCH menu for the partition whose core cell choices you wish
to set.
Step 2. Access the BCH configuration menu for the partition.
From the BCH main menu, enter CO to enter the configuration menu.
Step 3. Issue the COC command to check current core cell preferences.
Entering COC with no arguments lists all core cell preferences.
Step 4. Issue the COC command, with arguments, to set or change core cell
preferences.
For example, COC 1 4 sets the first core alternate preference to be
cell ID 4.
Likewise, COC 0 2 sets the core cell preference to be 2.
You can perform this task using the BCH interface, HP-UX
commands, or Partition Manager.
