HP Instant Capacity User's Guide for Version 9.x

6.7 Accidental Activation of an Instant Capacity Cell Board
If you accidentally activate an Instant Capacity cell board, you can deactivate it by following this
two-step procedure:
1. Set the cell board’s use-on-next-boot flag to n (no) by using the parmodify command.
2. Reboot the nPartition, or (on HP-UX 11.31 OEUR 0709 or later) a Cell Online Deactivation.
This step is not necessary if there was no reboot after the activation.
For example, to change the use-on-next-boot flag to n on the Instant Capacity cell board in
cabinet 0, slot 5, in nPartition 3, execute the following command:
/usr/sbin/parmodify -p 3 -m 0/5::n:
In this command, the n flag sets the cell board’s use-on-next-boot flag to “no” and causes
the cell board to not participate in the nPartition when it is booted.
For details about adding and configuring cells in nPartitions, see the nPartition Administrator's
Guide.
