You can list processor configurations by using any one of the following procedures:

Processor (CPU) configuration details include the CPU population, CPU type, and the clock speed.

Procedure 8-4 Listing Processor Configurations (Service Processor)

From the service processor Command Menu, use the PS command to list details about the cell whose processor configuration you want to view.

  1. Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CM to access the Command Menu.

  2. At the Command Menu, enter the PS command, select the C option, and specify the cell whose processor configuration you want to view.

  3. To exit the service processor Command Menu, enter MA to return to the service processor Main Menu.

    At the Main Menu, enter X to exit the service processor interface.

Procedure 8-5 Listing Processor Configurations (BCH Menu)

From the BCH Information Menu use the PR command to list processor details for the local nPartition. The BCH Menu is available only on HP 9000 systems.

  1. Access the BCH Main Menu for the nPartition whose processor configuration you want to list.

    Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select the nPartition console. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the BCH Main Menu (the Main Menu: Enter command or menu> prompt). If at a BCH menu other than the Main Menu, then enter MA to return to the BCH Main Menu.

  2. Enter IN to access the BCH Information Menu.

  3. Enter the PR command to list processor information for all active cells in the local nPartition.

  4. Exit the console and service processor interfaces if finished using them.

    To exit the BCH environment type ^B (Control-B); this exits the nPartition console and returns to the service processor Main Menu. To exit the service processor, type X at the Main Menu.

Procedure 8-6 Listing Processor Configurations (EFI Shell)

From the EFI Shell environment, use the info cpu command to list processor details for the local nPartition. The EFI Shell is available only on HP Integrity systems.

  1. Access the EFI Shell environment for the nPartition whose processor configuration you want to list.

    Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select the nPartition console.

    When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the main EFI menu). If at another EFI menu, select the Exit option from the sub-menus until you return to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.

    From the EFI Boot Manager menu, select the EFI Shell menu option to access the EFI Shell environment.

  2. Enter the info cpu command to list processor details for all active cells in the local nPartition.

  3. Exit the console and service processor interfaces if finished using them.

    To exit the EFI environment type ^B (Control-B); this exits the nPartition console and returns to the service processor Main Menu. To exit the service processor, type X at the Main Menu.

Procedure 8-7 Listing Processor Configurations (nPartition Commands)

From the command line, use parstatus -C for processor summaries for all cells in the server complex; or use parstatus -V -c# for detailed processor information for the specified cell (-c# where # is the cell number). Use the HP-UX ioscan -C processor command or the HP-UX B.11.23 and HP-UX B.11.31 mpsched -s command for processor information about the local nPartition.

  1. Login to a system with the nPartition commands installed.

    If using remote administration features to list processor configurations, you can login to any system with Enhanced nPartition Commands installed.

  2. Issue the command to list processor details.

    • parstatus -C — Cell and processor summaries for all cells in the server complex.

    • parstatus -V -c# — Detailed processor information for the specified cell (-c# where # is the cell number).

    • ioscan -C processor — HP-UX only. Processor HP-UX Hardware Paths for all configured processors in all active cells in the local nPartition.

    • mpsched -s — HP-UX B.11.23 and HP-UX B.11.31. Processor and "locality domain" summary for all configured processors in all active cells in the local nPartition.

Procedure 8-8 Listing Processor Configurations (Partition Manager)

You can list the processor configuration for any of the cells or nPartitions in a server complex by using Partition Manager.

When using Partition Manager Version 1.0, select the Details->Show Complex Details action, then select the CPUs/Memory tab.

When using Partition Manager Version 2.0, select the Cells tab.

  1. Access Partition Manager.

    For details on accessing Partition Manager or other tools, see “Tools for Listing Status”.

  2. List processor configuration details for any cell in the complex you currently are accessing.

    From the Partition Manager Version 1.0, select the Details->Show Complex Details action, then select the CPUs/Memory tab to view processor details about all cells in the complex. For additional details on any cell, use the Show Details button.

    From Partition Manager Version 2.0, select the Cells tab to view details about all cells in the complex, including processor details.

  3. Exit Partition Manager.

    From Partition Manager Version 1.0, select the File->Exit action.

    From Partition Manager Version 2.0, select Log off parmgr or exit the Web browser when finished.
