Obtaining Monitor and Hardware Resource
Information
The monitor and the partition database that is has loaded maintains
information about the virtual partitions. Using vparstatus, you can
obtain this information, which includes the current state of the
partitions and their resources. See the manpage vparstatus (1M).
Examples • To see summary information on all the partitions:

State Description
load The monitor is loading the kernel image of the virtual
partition. This is the first step of booting a virtual
partition. If successful, the state moves to boot.
boot The monitor has successfully loaded the kernel image
and is continuing with the boot process. If the launch is
successful, the state moves to up.
up The partition is up and running.
shut The partition is shutting down gracefully. Once the
partition is shutdown, the state moves to down.
down The partition is down.

TOC, etc.). Once the partition has completed crashing,
the state moves to down.
hung The partition is not responding.
