HP-UX Reference (11i v2 07/12) - 1M System Administration Commands N-Z (vol 4)

parunlock(1M) parunlock(1M)
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.
SECURITY WARNING: Specifying the password directly on the command line may pose a
security risk in your environment. The
ps or other related commands can be invoked in
such a way as to display the command line of a process. In this situation, any authenti-
cated user on the system can potentially see the password while the process is executing.
Hence, it is highly recommended not to specify the password on the command line, and
instead allow the command to prompt for the password.
Note: Specifying passwd on the command line will not be supported in future releases.
-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 con-
sidered 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 proces-
sor and using the SA command from the Command Menu.
The -u and -g options are mutually exclusive.
SECURITY WARNING: Specifying the password directly on the command line may pose a
security risk in your environment. The ps or other related commands can be invoked in
such a way as to display the command line of a process. In this situation, any authenti-
cated user on the system can potentially see the password while the process is executing.
Hence, it is highly recommended not to specify the password on the command line, and
instead allow the command to prompt for the password.
Note: Specifying passwd on the command line will not be supported in future releases.
-A Unlocks the Stable Complex Configuration Data, the Dynamic Complex Configuration
Data, the Partition Configuration Data of all the partitions on the target complex and the
cell data of all the cells in the target complex.
-P Cancels any pending changes to the Stable Complex Configuration Data of the target com-
plex.
Mapping of Global Cell Numbers to Local Cell Numbers
The cabinets in a complex are numbered starting from 0. The cell slots in each cabinet are also numbered
starting from 0. Each cabinet can have a maximum of 8 cells. For example, the cells located in cabinet 0
will have the following cell numbers in global format: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. The cell numbers in correspond-
ing local format will be 0/0, 0/1, 0/2, 0/3, 0/4, 0/5, 0/6, 0/7.
Similarly the cells located in cabinet 1 will have the following cell numbers in global format: 8, 9, 10, 11, 12,
13, 14, 15. The cell numbers in corresponding local format will be 1/0, 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/7.
From the above convention the cell located in cabinet 1, slot 0 is identified in the local format as 1/0 or in
the global format as 8. The parstatus command will display the above cell as "cab1,cell0". The cell
located in cabinet 1, slot 4 is identified in the local format as 1/4 or in the global format as 12. The
par-
status
command will display the above cell as "cab1,cell4". See parstatus(1).
RETURN VALUE
The parunlock command exits with one of the following values:
