6.7 Creating a PPAR Configuration List


6.7 Creating a PPAR Configuration List
For the SPARC M12-2, the PPAR configuration list is already set because there is only one physical partition. In the SPARC M12-2, you can set only the configuration policy (which specifies the degradation range for an error detected in an initial diagnosis of hardware).

Use the showpcl command to check the PPAR configuration list, and use the setpcl command to set the list. For an explanation of the setpcl command options, see the setpcl command man page or the Fujitsu SPARC M12 and Fujitsu M10/SPARC M10 XSCF Reference Manual.
In the case of the SPARC M12-2, a single SPARC M12-2 is treated as one physical partition (PPAR). In this case, the firmware treats the SPARC M12-2 as one physical system board (PSB). The PPAR is defined by assigning the number of the logical system board (LSB) corresponding to the single PSB.

  1. Execute the showpcl command to check the PPAR configuration list.
XSCF> showpcl -a
PPAR-ID LSB PSB Status
00 Powered Off
00 00-0
  1. Execute the setpcl command to set the configuration policy for all physical partitions as a whole.
XSCF> setpcl -p ppar_id -s policy=value
  1. For value, specify fru, psb, or system as the unit of degradation. The range of degradation is the same for psb and system. The default setting is fru.

    The following example sets the configuration policy to "All physical partitions" for physical partition 0.
XSCF> setpcl -p 0 -s policy=system
  1. Execute the showpcl command to check the set PPAR configuration list.
XSCF> showpcl -v -a
PPAR-ID LSB PSB Status No-Mem No-IO Cfg-policy
00 Powered Off
System
00 00-0 False False
