The Virtual Front Panel (VFP) provides ways to monitor
the boot or run status of each cell in an nPartition and of the nPartition
itself. The VFP provides the sort of information typically displayed on the
LCD of a non-partitionable server.
The VFP presents a real-time display of activity on the
selected nPartition(s) and it automatically updates when cell and nPartition
status change.
To access the VFP feature, enter VFP from
the service processor Main menu. To exit the VFP, type ^b (Control-b)
to return to the Main menu.
When you access a Virtual Front Panel, you can either select
the nPartition whose VFP you want to view or select the system VFP to view
summary information for all nPartitions in the server complex.
