node. For example, if the EXA system includes nodes 3c0d and 8bb9, to create a

2-node partition with node 3c0d as the primary node, type scale -create 3c0d,

8bb9.

After you use either method to create the partition, the scale information is

updated with the node partition ID assigned to the partition for future partition

operation. When you type scale at the system prompt, information similar to the

following example is displayed.

Node UUID: 92CF1100F19111DF8000E41F13E455FC

Node ID: 3c0d

Node SN:

Node Power State: off

Node Partition ID: 1

Node Logical ID: 0

Node Primary: yes

Node Mode: partition

Node UUID: C7C92400EE7011DF8000E41F13E454E4

Node ID: 8bb9

Node SN:

Node Power State: off

Node Partition ID: 1

Node Logical ID: 1

Node Primary: no

Node Mode: partition

Deleting a partition by using the IMM Telnet interface:

This topic provides information about deleting a partition by using the IMM Telnet

interface.

About this task

Note: Before you delete a partition, make sure that all the nodes in the partition

are powered off.

You can delete partitions through the IMM Telnet interface by using the delete

command (scale -delete) command or the delete -partid command (scale

-delete -partid id) command.

You can use the delete command to delete all partitions in the complex.

You can use the delete -partid command to delete a specific partition. For

example, to delete partition 1, type scale -delete -partid 1.
