parmodify(1M) parmodify(1M)

-d cell Delete the speciﬁed cell(s) from the partition. If the cell which is being deleted is an

active cell then after the execution of the

parmodify command the user must shut-

down the partition using the

shutdown -R

command for the conﬁguration change

to take effect. If the

-B

option is also speciﬁed then the partition will boot up to the

command prompt. If the

-B option is not speciﬁed then the partition will have to be

booted manually from the service processor. Deletion of inactive cells does not require

a shutdown of the partition.

A cell can be speciﬁed either in the local (cabinet#/slot#) or global (cell#) format. For

example, the cell located in cabinet 0, slot 1 is identiﬁed in the local format as 0/1 or in

the global format as 1.

-g Allows access to the complex speciﬁed by the

-h option. The accessed complex is then

considered the target complex. Access is through the service processor’s LAN port.

The

-h option is required if this option is used.

If this option is speciﬁed, 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 through 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.

-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).

-I IPaddress Speciﬁes the IP address that should be used by management tools such as

parmgr to

address the target partition. This value must be consistent with the IP address that is

assigned to the partition once HP-UX is installed and networking is conﬁgured.

-k s_lock:p_lock Speciﬁes the lock keys provided by parmgr for the Stable Complex Conﬁguration

Data and Partition Conﬁguration Data. The lock keys should always be speciﬁed in

pairs. If either lock key is not available

-1 should be speciﬁed as a placeholder. For

example: if the s_lock is available but the p_lock is not available, then it should be

speciﬁed as -k s_lock:-1.

Note: The -k option is intended for use by system management tools which invoke the

parmodify command programmatically. Command line users should avoid this

option.

-m cell:[celltype]:[use_on_next_boot]

:[failure_usage][:clm_value]

Modify attributes of cell(s) already assigned to the target partition. Please refer to the

explanation of the

-a option for details of the different ﬁelds in this option argument.

Note:

• The use_on_next_boot ﬁeld of the last cell containing core I/O cannot be modiﬁed to

• If modifying the CLM value of a cell in any partition other than the local partition,

it is preferable to use the -u option.

-P Partition Name Speciﬁes the name of the partition. The characters which can appear in a valid parti-

tion name are a-z, A-Z, 0-9, - (dash), _ (underscore), " " (space) and

. (period). If

the partition name includes a space then the name should be enclosed in double

quotes. The partition name can have a maximum of 64 characters; it should not start

with a dash (

-).

-r cell Speciﬁes the core cell choices. A core cell choice is a conﬁgured cell which has

attached core I/O. If the core cell of a partition is deleted then the ﬁrmware will

select the ﬁrst core cell choice as the next core cell. One to four core cell choices can

be speciﬁed. The ﬁrst cell speciﬁed is the ﬁrst core cell choice, the second cell

speciﬁed is the second core cell choice, the third cell speciﬁed is the third core cell

choice and the fourth cell speciﬁed is the fourth core cell choice. Use of this option

will override previous core cell choices. So, if the order of a given cell is changing, all

of the core cell choices should be speciﬁed in the new order.
