Vpar's "Device not owned by partiotion"

[Peter Hogenes]

Hello i've created two Partitions on a Rp5470 server. I've booted the first vpar partition, than i want to start the second vpar partition. Command i used "vparload -p ". Than i get the following error code : vparboot unable to boot hpro10_vpar: device is not owned by the partition.
I've attached a screendump with some more info. Can anybody help me ???.

try vparboot -p
vparload used from vpMon I think.

Sorry i did use the "vparboot" command. Still doesn't work.

What device is at 0.10 ??

also, what does "vparstatus -A" display?

and what does "vparstatus -e" display??

Also, are you using npars (physical partitioning)??

Ok,it looks like internal IO Local Bus Adapter
(0.0....) belongs to hpro11 so you shouldn't be able to boot hpro10 (which boot device is on IO belonging to another vPar).
Put additional scsi channel on some lba and try to use it.

Thanks for your answer. This means that i can't use the internal disks for different partitions ????.

[Zeev Schultz]

Yes.On n-partitions (cells based) like rp8400,rp7410 that have internal disks I think
it can be done due to different io channels used.

Do you have an entire system ioscan available? One done when vpars is not running. To get it, shutdown your partitions and boot hpux normally (ie not /stand/vpmon) and do an "ioscan -fn"

As stated, you can't SHARE IO paths, so if your internal disks are on the SAME IO PATH, then you must find another IO path to boot your other partition from.

Hi harry,

My problem is that i used the internal disks for different Vpar's. I also have to DS2100 disk systems attached to the server. What i gonna try is to put a unix on that external disk, and build some new Vpar's.

Greeting Peter.

ps. I attached an ioscan.

You can use

disk 4 0/1/0/1.6.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE HP 36.4GST336753LC
/dev/dsk/c5t6d0 /dev/rdsk/c5t6d0


But remember you need to remove the IO path 0/0/1 from hpro10_vpar and change the boot path.

I've attached your ioscan back showing how the lba's are separated.

Hi Harry,

I'm now installing a new unix version on the disk you gave me. I think it's gonna work this way. I let you know when i'm finished ( gonna take a little time, it's closing time at the office for me ).

Thanks for all the replies !!!!!!!!!.
