The partition scope encompasses all of the resources belonging to a single nPartition. The views in the partition scope are similar to those in the complex scope, but they are limited to the selected partition.

Within the partition scope, you can select any of the following views by clicking on the corresponding tab.

This scope is also used to view available resources. In that case, only the hardware view, cells view, and I/O view can be selected.

Hardware View

Display the computing hardware components of the nPartition, including their physical location in the complex's cabinets.

Partitions View (Single Partition View)

Display a logical view of all the nPartition's components.

Cells View

Display the cells (CPU and memory) within the nPartition.

I/O View

Display the I/O hardware components of the nPartition.

General View

Display the general properties of the nPartition.

Viewing a Different nPartition.  To view resources belonging to a different nPartition, you can perform any of the following actions:

  • Click the complex name in the scope indicator and select a different nPartition from the complex hardware view. This enables you to select a different nPartition in the same complex.

  • Select the ToolsSwitch Complexes action and enter details for the remote nPartition you want to manage. For more information, see User Authentication. This enables you to select an nPartition in the same complex or a different complex.

  • If launching Partition Manager from a component in HP Virtual Server Environment (VSE), click the Go Back link and select a different nPartition from HP Integrity Essentials Virtualization Manager. For more information, see Start from HP Virtual Server Environment. This is the recommended way to change nPartitions in VSE.
