vparstatus2(1M)

For OA Based Partition Management Systems

vparstatus2(1M)

UNKNOWN The virtual partition in an unknown (error) run-state.

• Summary of detailed CPU, I/O, and memory resource allocations. The summary memory allocation

display includes a count of Socket Local Memory (SLM) and InterLeaved Memory (ILM) ranges (both

user-speciﬁed and system-assigned), total megabytes for each memory type, and the granularity (least

common multiple) of each memory type. The detailed and machine-readable displays include the total

size, and the granularity of each memory type.

Conﬁguration changes at the nPartition level take into effect only after all vPars are shutdown and the

nPar rebooted.

When displaying CPU conﬁguration information,

vparstatus includes the following:

• The resource path of each speciﬁed CPU.

• The status of the CPU.

• The number and name of the virtual partition, if any, to which the CPU is assigned.

• If the CPU is one of multiple cores on the same socket, the paths and assigned virtual partitions of all

its siblings.

Options and Arguments

vparstatus recognizes the following command line options and arguments:

-d [cpu_path]...

Shows CPU information.

When invoked from the OS with no cpu_path speciﬁed, the command displays

conﬁguration information for all CPUs in the local nPartition (the one in which the com-

mand is executed).

When invoked from the OA with no cpu_path speciﬁed, the command needs to be used

along with

-N option and displays conﬁguration information for all CPUs in the speciﬁed

nPartition.

The option may be speciﬁed repeatedly with any number of cpu_path s to limit the display

to those CPU paths. A summary display is shown by default. When used with the

-v

-M option, a detailed or machine-readable display is shown, respectively.

-p vpar_id Restricts the command display to information about vpar_id . vpar_id can be speciﬁed

either as number or name. By default, information about all virtual partitions in the

current virtual partition database is displayed. Multiple virtual partitions may be

speciﬁed, except when used to display available resources.

When invoked from the OS, the command shows the information of the speciﬁed virtual

partition of the local nPartition.

When invoked from the OA, the vpar_id should be speciﬁed using the npar_id

vpar_id

format or speciﬁed along with the

-N option. When used in the format npar_id :vpar_id

format, npar_id and vpar_id can either be a number or name. The command shows the

information of the speciﬁed virtual partition of the speciﬁed nPartition.

-r Displays the revisions of partition management tools.

-v Presents a detailed display, one resource per line. Each resource type is identiﬁed.

CPU resources are identiﬁed by resource path, when path information is available, and

by count. Some CPU paths may not be known when virtual partitions are in the

DOWN

run-state. In this case, <no path> is displayed.

CPU path information is shown in three lists:

• User assigned CPU paths.

• The path of the boot processor, the ﬁrst CPU assigned when the virtual partition is

booted. If the virtual partition is

DOWN, the list has at most one CPU path.

• system assigned CPU paths. User assigned CPUs, shown in a separate list (above),

are always associated with and assigned to a virtual partition, even when that virtual

partition is

DOWN. The system assigns the remaining allocated CPUs only when the

virtual partition is booted. If the virtual partition is not DOWN, this list shows the

explicit paths of these CPUs. Otherwise, the placeholder <no path> is shown for
