DESCRIPTION
The command unlocks the specified Partition Configuration Data, the
Dynamic Complex Configuration Data, the Stable Complex Configuration
Data, or the cell data; or cancels pending changes to the Stable Com‐
plex 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.
Superuser permission is required to run this command on the local par‐
tition. If the option is used to access a remote partition or complex,
superuser permission is not required on the local system, and the local
system need not exist on an nPartition. If the option is specified,
username on the remote host must have superuser permission or the com‐
mand will fail.
Refer to the for a description of the partition management terms used
in this man page.
Options and Arguments
recognizes the following command line options and arguments:
Unlocks the Partition Configuration Data of the specified target parti‐
tion on the target complex. PartitionNumber specifies the unique num‐
ber (integer) assigned to the partition when it was created.
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.
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.
Unlocks the Dynamic Complex Configuration Data of the target complex.
Allows access to the complex specified by the
option. The accessed complex is then considered the target com‐
plex. Access is through the service processor's LAN port.
The option is required if this option is used.
If this option is specified, the command prompts for the pass‐
word.
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 through
IPMI over LAN can be enabled or disabled by logging on to the
service processor and using the command from the Command Menu.
The and options are mutually exclusive.
This option should only be used in combination with either the
or option. IPaddress|hostname specifies the IP address or host‐
name of the target partition or complex
Cancels any pending changes to the Stable Complex Configuration Data of
the target complex.
Unlocks the Stable Complex Configuration Data of the target complex.
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 option is required if this option is used.
If this option is specified, the command prompts for the pass‐
word.
username specifies a configured user name on the target parti‐
tion.
Note: This command is a Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM)
Client Application. The option accesses the target partition
using a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection. If errors are
reported, check that the conditions described in the section are
satisfied.
Mapping of Global Cell Numbers to Local Cell Numbers
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 num‐
bers 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 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 command will display the above cell
as "cab1,cell4". See parstatus(1).
RETURN VALUE
The command exits with one of the following values:
Successful completion.
Error condition occurred.
EXAMPLES
Unlock the Partition Configuration Data of the partition whose parti‐
tion number is
Unlock the cell data of the cell
Unlock the Stable Complex Configuration Data on the local complex.
Unlock the Dynamic Complex Configuration Data on the local complex.
Unlock the Stable Complex Configuration Data, the Dynamic Complex Con‐
figuration 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
This command uses the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) product
and some of its configuration settings. If you encounter connection
errors when using the option, check that the following two conditions
are satisfied:
· Use the command (see cimconfig(1M) in the WBEM product documenta‐
tion) to verify (and correct if necessary) the setting of the fol‐
lowing two variables:
·
·
· The target partition's digital certificate has been appended to the
local partition's Shared Authentication Store. For the nPartition
commands, the Shared Authentication Store is stored in the file:
This file is used by all the clients, which use SSL based certifi‐
cates. If these clients trust a target partition, then the nParti‐
tion commands will also trust the target partition.
Refer to the WBEM documents specified in the section below for further
information.
