DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The parunlock command unlocks the specified Partition Configuration
Data, the Dynamic Complex Configuration Data, the Stable Complex
Configuration Data, specified cell data or cancels pending changes to
the Stable Complex Configuration Data or any combination of these.
This command should be used with caution. It should be used only when
the system resources are locked due to the abnormal termination of any
partition command or other similar applications.
Root permission is required to run this command on the local
partition. If the -u or -g option is used to access a remote
partition or complex, root permission is not required on the local
system, and the local system need not exist on an nPartition. If the
-u option is specified, username on the remote host must have root
permission or the command will fail.
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]
parunlock recognizes the following command line options and arguments:
-p PartitionNumber
Unlocks the Partition Configuration Data of the
specified target partition on the target complex.
PartitionNumber specifies the unique number (integer)
assigned to the partition when it was created.
-d Unlocks the Dynamic Complex Configuration Data of the
target complex.
-s Unlocks the Stable Complex Configuration Data of the
target complex.
-c cell Unlocks the cell data of the specified cell. 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.
-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).
The complex to be modified 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
Hewlett-Packard Company - 2 - HP-UX 11i Version 2: Sep 2004
parunlock(1M) parunlock(1M)
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).
-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.
-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 complex.

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 parunlock command exits with one of the following values:
0 Successful completion.
1 Error condition occurred.
EXAMPLES [Toc] [Back]
Unlock the Partition Configuration Data of the partition whose
partition number is 2.
parunlock -p 2
Unlock the cell data of the cell 2.
parunlock -c 2
Unlock the Stable Complex Configuration Data on the local complex.
parunlock -s
Unlock the Dynamic Complex Configuration Data on the local complex.
parunlock -d
Unlock the Stable Complex Configuration Data, the Dynamic Complex
Configuration Data, the Partition Configuration Data of all the
partitions on the local complex and the cell data of all the cells in
the local complex.

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
+ 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.
