Rebooting and Reconfiguring Conceptual Points

If there is a pending Reboot for Reconfiguration for the involved nPartition, no virtual partitions will be rebooted until all the virtual partitions within the given nPartition are shut down and the involved vPars Monitor is rebooted. This implies that the target virtual partition of the vparload, vparboot, and vparreset commands will not boot until all virtual partitions within the nPartition have been shut down and the vPars Monitor is rebooted.

For more information on using the -R and -r options of the shutdown and reboot commands used in a Reboot for Reconfiguration, see “shutdown and reboot commands”.

For more information, see “Shutting Down or Rebooting the nPartition (Or Rebooting the vPars Monitor)” and the vPars Monitor command “reboot [mode]”.

If you make an nPartition change where a Reboot for Reconfiguration is required, all the virtual partitions within the nPartition need to be shutdown and the vPars Monitor rebooted in order for the reconfiguration to take effect.
