issue a warning if the specified clm_value exceeds the total memory of the cell.
If no clm_value is specified, maximum interleaved memory (no CLM) is assumed for
cells. The command will issue a warning if 100% CLM is specified for all the cells
in the partition. The clm_value can be expressed in two forms:
As a percentage (ratio). The percent number can be any number in the range 0 -
100 with a suffix of "%". This number will be rounded up to 12.5%, 25%, 37.5%,
50%, 62.5%, 75%, 87% or 100%. If the cell contains less than 4GB memory, then
the percentage will be rounded to 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%. The specified percen-
tage is applied each time the partition boots, thus resulting in a different value if
the working memory in the cell is different. For example, a cell in a partition
has 8GB memory and the user specifies 50% CLM. When the partition boots
4GB of that cell’s memory will be used as CLM. Later the user shuts down the
partition, adds another 8GB memory to that cell. When the partition is booted
again, the cell now has 16GB of memory, so 8GB (50%) is allocated as CLM.
As an absolute number(default). This can also be optionally suffixed by "GB".
The clm_value is interpreted as an absolute number of gigabytes of memory.
Numbers other than integers and halves are rounded up to the nearest 0.5GB.
For example: 2.5GB will not be rounded up. However 2.3GB will be rounded up
to 2.5GB. For example, a cell in a partition has 8GB memory and the user
specifies 4GB CLM. When the partition boots 4GB of that cell’s memory will be
used as CLM. Later the user shuts down the partition, adds another 8GB
memory to that cell. When the partition is booted again, the cell now has 16GB
of memory, but the CLM is still 4GB.
-u username:[passwd]
Specifies the required authorization to access a partition other than the local system
(but can also be used as a loopback access to the local partition).
The
-h option is required if this option is used.
username specifies a configured user name on the target partition.
passwd specifies the password associated with the username. If this field is empty,
the command prompts for the password.
Note: This command is a Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) Client
Application. The
-u option accesses the target partition using a Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) connection. If errors are reported, check that the conditions described
in the DEPENDENCIES section are satisfied.
-h IPaddress|hostname
This option should only be used in combination with either the -u or -g option.
IPaddress|hostname specifies the IP address or hostname of the target partition
(
-u) or complex (-g).
-g [passwd] Allows access to the complex specified by the -h option. The accessed complex is
then considered the target complex. Access is via the service processor’s LAN port.
The
-h option is required if this option is used.
passwd specifies the IPMI password of the service processor. If this field is omitted,
the command prompts for the password.
If an error is reported when you attempt to connect using this option, check to see
that IPMI LAN access has not been disabled on the remote service processor.
Access to the complex via IPMI over LAN can be enabled or disabled by logging on
to the service processor and using the
SA command from the Command Menu.
The
-u and -g options are mutually exclusive.
-b path Specifies the primary boot path. path specifies a physical hardware path. Note: On
Itanium-based platforms, boot paths cannot be set or modified on a non-local parti-
tion. You must use the SP console interface to set any boot path of the newly
created partition.
-t path Specifies the alternate boot path. path specifies a physical hardware path. Note:
On Itanium-based platforms, boot paths cannot be set or modified on a non-local
partition. You must use the SP console interface to set any boot path of the newly
