Putting an nPartition into an Inactive State and Other GSP Operations
1. If possible, gracefully shutdown all the virtual partitions within the target nPartition. For example:
keira1# vparstatus
keira1# shutdown -h
keira2# vparstatus
keira2# shutdown -h
2. On the console, you will arrive at the MON> prompt. From the vPars Monitor prompt, type
Ctrl-B to enter into the GSP:
MON> ^B
GSP MAIN MENU:
CO: Consoles
VFP: Virtual Front Panel
CM: Command Menu
CL: Console Logs

GSP> cm
Enter HE to get a list of available commands
GSP:CM>
4. From the GSP Command Menu, perform the desired hard partition commands.
For example, to make the hard partition and its cells inactive, use the RR (Reset for
Reconfiguration) command:
GSP:CM> rr
This command resets for reconfiguration the selected partition.
WARNING: Execution of this command irrecoverably halts all system
processing and IO activity and restarts the selected partition
in a way that it canbe reconfigured.
Do you want to reset for reconfiguration partition number 0? (Y/[N]) y

Configuring CLM for an nPartition
ILM memory can be re-configured to be CLM using the parmodify command. Then, you can
assign existing available CLM to a virtual partition.
For complete information on CLM and configuring cells and nPartitions, see the nPartition’s Guide.
parmodify syntax
The syntax for the parmodify command is
parmodify -pnPar_num -mcell:[type]:[use]:[fail][:clm]
