Booting from the CLI
To activate a partition from the command line, you can either use the poweron partition
{identifier} command, the bo command, or the pe command.
poweron partition 2
Poweron request sent to partition 2. Operation initiated successfully.
Please run PARSTATUS/VPARSTATUS or SHOW SYSLOG OA to determine the completion
status of the operation.
After you power on the nPartition, the partition firmware is booted and comes up to the Active/EFI
state if the nPartition is in nPars mode or to Active/RUN_VPARS state if the nPartition is in vPars
mode.
