cpuconfig
Displays the config/deconfig state of processors in the system and allows the user to configure or reconfigure
processors.
Syntax
cpuconfig <cpu> <on|off>
Parameters
<cpu> specify a processor
<on|off> state to set the processor to
Operation
Issuing cpuconfig with no parameters displays the config/deconfig status of all processors. A user can
reconfigure CPUs by specifying a CPU number and a state (on or off). If a valid state is entered and is
different from the current state of a CPU, its status changes on the next boot. The last remaining configured
CPU in a system cannot be deconfigured.
