vparstatus(1M) vparstatus(1M)
Machine readable format: A separate list of migrating CPUs is added to the display following the
list of monitor-assigned CPUs. If no CPU is migrating, this list is empty.
Refer to the EXAMPLES section below.
Assignment or de-assignment of memory is called memory migration and requires a certain amount of
time, especially if memory is being deleted from a vPar. Memory being added is immediately assigned to
its target vPar. Memory being deleted remains assigned to its vPar and does not appear in a
vpar-
status -A display until migration has completely finished.
Migrating memory is indicated in the various displays as follows:
Summary format: A letter
p in the column following the ILM size indicates that ILM memory is
migrating in or out of a vPar.
A letter
p in the column following the CLM size indicates that CLM memory is migrating in or out of
avPar.
Detail format: Any memory by size or range that is migrating in or out is indicated by the addi-
tional string,
migration pending.
Machine readable format: If there is any pending memory migration, the last sub-field in the
memory field will have the letter
p
. If no memory is migrating, this field will be empty.
Refer to the EXAMPLES section below.
Virtual partitions may be configured on a partitionable platform such as the HP Superdome.
Configuration changes made to the underlying hard partition do not become effective until all virtual par-
titions on that hard partition have been shut down and the virtual partition monitor has been rebooted.
If a configuration change is pending, the command displays a message to that effect following any sum-
mary or detailed display. Refer to "Performing a Reboot for Reconfig for an nPartition" in the nPartition
Administrator’s Guide for more information. If the
-M option has been specified for either the configured
resources or available resources, the configuration change message is replaced by an additional field
appended to the machine-readable output. Refer to the description of the
-M option.
When displaying CPU configuration information,
vparstatus includes the following:
The version of the command output format (only if
-V has been specified).
The hardware path of each specified CPU.
The Hardware Physical Address (HPA) (PA platform) of the processor, or the contents of the
processors Local ID (LID) register (Itanium-based platforms).
The CellID of the cell on which the CPU resides.
The status of the CPU, displayed as one or more of the following: Enabld, Inactv, Failed, MarkDC,
Pendng
The name of the vPar, if any, to which the CPU is assigned.
If the CPU is one of multiple cores on the same socket, the paths and assigned vPars of all its siblings.
Options
vparstatus recognizes the following command line options and arguments:
-p vp_name
Restricts the command display to information about vp_name . By default, information
about all virtual partitions in the monitor database or specified alternate partition database
is displayed. Multiple vp_name s may be specified, except when used to display PIM data or
available resources.
-D db_file Displays information from the alternate partition database file db_file rather than from the
monitor database. Exception: If the monitor is running and db_file specifies the file origi-
nally loaded into the monitor, information is from the monitors copy of the database.
The attributes and resources of a vPar in an alternate database file were specified in either
the
vparcreate or vparmodify command, but have not necessarily been checked for
existence on a running system. They are referred to as "requested" information. Existence
of the attributes and resources of a vPar in the live monitor database have been verified;
they are referred to as "effective" information.
