vparcreate fails (code 19,12)

[Juan M Leon]

I need some help, if someone ran into the same problems please help.

The vpar software and vparmgr was installed
T1335AC VPARMGR
after install the sytem reboots. After the system is back up, I attempt to create a partition using vparcreate -p <:::>, etc.

I receive the following error and no partition was created.

Internal error: cannot get monitor version info (Code 19,12)

any help will be appreciated

I found the following errors in the rc.log

Vparextract cannot open vpar monitor
Warning VCS is not in kernel
Warning VCN is not in kernel
Warning vparmon is not in kernel
Not booted in vpar mode

I check lsdev and I am able to see the vcn,vcs and vpar drivers, however I am still unable to get to the vpmon from the OS, I can reboot the machine and get to the vpmon from the ISL but since no partitions were created I cannot load anything.
any suggestions as the errors in the rc.log.

thank you

Hi

The major number of the vpmon device file is wrong. Remove or move the vpmon device file:

# rm /dev/vpmon

or

# mv /dev/vpmon /dev/vpmon.bad

Try it!!!
All the Best...

What I found is that the vcn,vcs and vpar drivers were not loaded in the kernel, I reload the kerner with the drivers included. and after reboot the system I was able to execute the vpar commands to create or check status of virtual partitions.

Thanks for your help
