parperm npar on 2:1

3) No authorization is given to an OS running in a virtual partition 1 of nPartition 2 if only the nParti-

tion 2 is authorized.

parperm npar on 2

Issuing this command does not give authorization to virtual partition 2:1. However, if virtual parti-

tion 2:1 is shut down, and nPartition is booted up later, OS running on nPartition 2 is authorized to

do nPartition commands on other nPartitions.

4) An OS running in an nPartition 1 or a virtual partition in an nPartition 1 is granted automatic

authorization to do nPartition commands on nPartition 1.

5) Give authorization to an OS running in a virtual partition 1 of nPartition 2 to perform virtual parti-

tion operations on other virtual partitions of nPartition 2.

parperm vpar on 2:1

6) Give authorization to an OS running in nPartition 2 to perform virtual partition operations on other

nPartition is not supported.

For example, the following is not supported:

parperm vpar on 2

7) An OS running in an nPartition 1 is granted automatic authorization to perform virtual partition

commands for nPartition 1.

8) An OS running in a virtual partition 1 of an nPartition 2 is granted automatic authorization to per-

form virtual partition commands for virtual partition 1 of nPartition 2.

ERRORS

OA syslog contains additional description of errors encountered during partition operations. Users can

view the OA syslog from the OA using the SHOW SYSLOG OA command.

Error: System unable to accept partition commands

The above error message is printed out under the following circumstances:

• Attempting to run command from an OA other than the active OA in enclosure 1.

• System has been shut down (e.g. with POWEROFF XFABRIC, or ambient overtemp).

• The OA has not ﬁnished initializing.

In the above scenarios, please ensure the system and OA are completely up and you are running the com-
