vparstatus: Pending nPartition Reboot for Reconfiguration
On an nPartitionable system, if the nPartition has a pending Reboot for Reconfiguration, the
vparstatus output will show the following message:
Note: A profile change is pending. The hard partition must be rebooted to complete it.
Example:

vparstatus: vPars Monitor and Database Information
Beginning with vPars A.03.02, the -m option displays the console path, the hardware path from
which the vPars Monitor was booted, the fleshiest path of the vPars Monitor, and the vPars database
file that is being used by the vPars Monitor. Beginning with vPars A.04.01, memory ranges used
by the vPars Monitor and firmware are also displayed.
Examples
• vPars A.03.02:
# vparstatus -m
Console path: 0.0.2.0
Monitor Boot disk path: 0.0.1.0
Monitor Boot filename: /stand/vpmon
Database filename: /stand/vpdb.mine
• vPars A.04.01:
# vparstatus -m
Console path: No path as console is virtual
Monitor boot disk path: 13.0.11.1.0.8.0
Monitor boot filename: /stand/vpmon
Database filename: /stand/vpdb
Memory ranges used: 0x0/232611840 Monitor

Managing: Creating a Virtual Partition
You can create a virtual partition using the vparcreate command.
CAUTION: LBAs must be explicitly specified when using vPars A.03.01 or earlier. The examples
in this chapter use a non-nPartitionable system. If using an nPartitionable system, read “Planning,
Installing, and Using vPars with an nPartitionable Server” (page 46).
