Re: need to create a new vpar on a itnanimum with access to tape

First you need to install a non-vpar system from your tape (perhaps in the 2-step method), then you can create and boot the vpar.

You cannot boot a vpar from tape on an Integrity server.

All you need is here:

Hope this helps!

vparcreate.......

Without knowing all hardware paths and resources needed it would be impossible for anyone here to give you the exact commands and syntax.

I guess your config is wrong.

To set nPar mode:

either
MON> reboot nPars

or from EFI

Shell> parconfig nPars â n
Shell> parconfig reset

Hope this helps!
