Toggling partitions by using the IMM Telnet interface:
This topic provides information about toggling partitions by using the IMM Telnet
interface.
About this task
Note: Before you toggle a partition to Standalone mode, make sure that all the
nodes in the partition are powered off.
A partition can be in either of two modes: Standalone and Partition. When the
partition is in Standalone mode, each node operates independently. When the
partition is in Partition mode, all the nodes in the partition boot as a single system.
The command to toggle the partition is scale -mode standalone|partition
-partid id.
For example, to set partition 1 in Standalone mode, type scale -mode standalone
-partid 1.
Starting, stopping, and resetting by using the IMM Telnet interface:
This topic provides information about starting, stopping, and resetting by using the
IMM Telnet interface.
About this task
There are three additional partition commands that you can use with the IMM
Telnet interface: start, stop, and reset.
You can use the start command (scale -start {-partid id | -node nodeid})to
start a partition or node. When you use this command, if the node is in a partition
and the partition is not in Standalone mode, all the nodes in the partition will
power on. For example, to start partition 1, type scale -start -partid 1.
Use the reset command (scale -reset {-partid id | -node nodeid}) to reset a
partition or node. When you use this command, if the node is in a partition and
the partition is not in Standalone mode, all the nodes in the partition will be reset.
Use the stop command (scale -stop {-partid id | -node nodeid}) to shut down
a partition or node. When you use this command, if the node is in a partition and
the partition is in Standalone mode, all the nodes in the partition will power off.
For example, to stop node 8bb9, type scale -stop -node 8bb9.
