0 Successful completion.
1 Error condition occurred.
EXAMPLES

WARNINGS
On a partition whose hardware resources are managed under an instant Capacity On Demand (iCOD)
license, the parmodify command fails if a configuration change would take the partition out of compliance.
Examples of such actions include:
• Assigning an iCOD cell to a partition, specifying "y" for the cell’s use_on_next_boot field.
• Changing an iCOD cell’s use_on_next_boot field to "y" after assigning it to a partition.
• Assigning a cell containing iCOD-licensed CPUs to a partition that is not running, or that does not have
the iCOD software installed.
For more information about actions that are restricted on iCOD partitions, refer to the iCOD User’s Guide
located at /usr/share/doc/icodUserGuide.pdf.
HP-UX 11i Version 2 is the last HP-UX release on which passing passwd for the
-u and -g options is sup-
ported. Specifying passwd on the command line will not be supported in future releases. The command
will prompt for the password.
DEPENDENCIES
This command uses the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) product and certain of its
configuration settings. If you encounter connection errors when using the
-u option, check that the follow-
ing two conditions are satisfied:
• Use the cimconfig command (see cimconfig(1M) in the WBEM product documentation) to verify (and
correct if necessary) the setting of the following two variables:
• enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess=true
• enableHttpsConnection=true
• You must have appended the target partition’s digital certificate to the local partition’s Trust Store file.
For the nPartition commands, the Trust Store file is
/var/opt/wbem/client.pem.
Note: You must have appended the target partition’s digital certificate to the local partition’s Trust
Store file. For the npartition commands, the Trust Store file is
/var/opt/wbem/client.pem.
This file is used by the commands that come with WBEM installation. Hence, if the commands that
come with the WBEM installation trust a target partition, then npartition commands will also trust the
target partition.
Refer to the WBEM documents specified in the SEE ALSO section below for further information.
