DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The parstatus command displays information about a system complex. If
no arguments are supplied, all major components that are physically
present in the local complex are listed. A specific component (cell,
I/O chassis, cabinet, or partition) may be specified in order to
restrict the output to information about that component. Either the
-u option or the -g option can be specified to access a remote
complex.

Please refer to the HP System Partitions Guide for a description of
the partition management terms used in this man page.
Options and Arguments [Toc] [Back]
parstatus recognizes the following command line options and arguments:
-s Indicates if the command is being executed on a hardware
partitionable platform. When this option is specified, the
command will either succeed or fail (see RETURN VALUE below)
and nothing will be displayed on stdout or stderr.
-u username:[passwd]
Specifies the required authorization to access a partition
other than the local partition (but can also be used as a
loopback access to the local partition). If complex
attributes are displayed, the complex is the one in which
this target partition resides.
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.
SECURITY WARNING: Specifying the password directly on the
command line may pose a security risk in your environment.
The ps(1) or other related commands can be invoked in such a
way as to display the command line of a process. In this
situation, any authenticated 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.
-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).
Hewlett-Packard Company - 2 - HP-UX 11i Version 2: Sep 2004
parstatus(1) parstatus(1)
-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.
SECURITY WARNING: Specifying the password directly on the
command line may pose a security risk in your environment.
The ps(1) or other related commands can be invoked in such a
way as to display the command line of a process. In this
situation, any authenticated 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.
-w Display the local partition number in a full sentence. If
the -u option connects to another partition, that partition
number is reported instead. The -M option restricts the
display to just the partition number.
-X Display the complex attributes.
-A Only display the available resources in the complex.
-V Verbose mode. Increase the amount of information displayed.
Note: The cell IODC version field is used for PA-RISC cells
only. This value will be 0xFFFF (i.e., 65535) for
Itanium(R)-based cells.
Additional information displayed with -V includes:
For Cabinet:
* Status of each of the cabinet blower(s)
* Status of each of the I/O fan(s)

parstatus(1) parstatus(1)
* Status of each of the bulk power supply(s)
* Status of each of the backplane power board(s)
For Partition:
* Primary, alternate and secondary boot path settings
* PDC, IODC version numbers
* Memory interleaving / local memory settings
* Cells summary info
* I/O chassis summary info
For Cell:
* Details of each cpu on the cell
* Details of memory on the cell
* Memory interleaving / local memory settings
-M Produce a machine readable/parseable output, or restrict the
output of the -w option to a partition number. The machine
readable output will have the columns separated by a single
colon character (:) and will not have a column header.
-C Show information for all cells in the complex. Note: The
parstatus command displays the maximum CPU count that is
supported by the cell hardware.
-I Show information for all I/O chassis in the complex.
-B Show information for all cabinets in the complex.
-P Show information for all partitions in the complex.
-c cell Show information about the specified cell. The cell id can
be specified either in the local (cabinet#/slot#) or global
(cell_ID) format. For example, the cell located in cabinet
0, slot 1 is locally identified as 0/1 or globally as 1.
Note: The parstatus command displays the maximum CPU count
that is supported by the cell hardware.
-i I/Ochassis
Show information about the specified I/Ochassis. The
I/Ochassis id can be specified in the form of
cabinet#/enclosure#/chassis#. For example, the I/O chassis
located in cabinet 0, enclosure 1 and I/O chassis slot 3 is
identified as 0/1/3.
-b cabinet
Show information about the specified cabinet.
-p PartitionNumber
Show information about the specified partition.
PartitionNumber is the unique partition number (integer)
which was assigned to the partition when it was created.

Mapping of Global Cell Numbers to Local Cell Numbers [Toc] [Back]
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 corresponding 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(1) 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 parstatus(1) command
will display the above cell as "cab1,cell4".
RETURN VALUE [Toc] [Back]
The parstatus command exits with one of the following values:
0 Successful completion.
1 Error condition occurred.

DEPENDENCIES [Toc] [Back]
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 following
two conditions are satisfied:
+ Use the cimconfig(1M) command to verify (and correct if necessary)
the setting of the following two variables:
+ enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess=true
Hewlett-Packard Company - 7 - HP-UX 11i Version 2: Sep 2004
parstatus(1) parstatus(1)
+ 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.
