Platform Support Remarks
This
vparstatus describes functionality on system not running Onboard Administrator (OA)
based partition management. For vparstatus on systems with OA based partition management,
refer to vparstatus2 (1M) by typing
man vparstatus2.
DESCRIPTION
The various forms of the
vparstatus command display:
• The attributes and hardware resources associated with one or more virtual partitions (vPars),
presented in summary format by default. The
-v option presents the same data in detailed format,
while the -M option presents it in machine-readable format.
• Resources currently available, that is, not assigned to any virtual partition. The
-M option presents
the same data in machine-readable format.
• Processor Information Module (PIM) data from the most recent resetting of a virtual partition.
• The state, the vPar owning the CPU, and any siblings of any or all CPUs in the vPars environment,
presented in summary format by default. The
-v option presents the same data in detailed format,
while the -M option presents it in machine-readable format. The monitor must be running.
• The virtual partition monitor event log.
• Various monitor-related data items, such as the file name and path of the active monitor, and the
active DB file. The
-M option presents the same data in machine-readable format. The monitor must
be running.
• The name of the local virtual partition, that is, the virtual partition from which the command is run.
The
-M option displays only the name. Otherwise a full sentence that includes the name is displayed.
• The version number of the
vparstatus output format.
There are two major display groups, one for vPars and a second for CPU/memory configuration. Each is
subdivided into one of three listing formats: summary, detailed or verbose, and machine-readable. All
are described below.
vPars: If no arguments are supplied and the virtual partition monitor is running,
vparstatus
displays a summary format of all attributes and resources of all vPars in the monitor database. One or
more vPars may be specified explicitly in order to restrict the output to information about the specified
vPars.
The
-D option lists similar information from an alternate database file. If the -D option is not specified
and the monitor is not running, information is taken from the default database /stand/vpdb if it
exists. Otherwise a command error occurs. In either case, there is a major difference in the displayed
information. See the description of the -D option for further details.
There are three major vPar listing formats. The format chosen depends on command options and forms:
• The summary format lists name, attributes, and resource totals. It is displayed if neither the
-v nor
-M option is used.
• The detailed format lists name, attributes, and detailed resource assignments, one per line with anno-
tative headings. The
-v option produces this format.
