Starting system WPARs

You can start a system WPAR from the global environment using the startwpar command.

To start a system WPAR, run the following command in the global environment:

startwpar wpar_name

You can also start a system WPAR in maintenance mode. Starting in maintenance mode performs all of the actions of starting the WPAR with the exception of network configuration. You can use this flag to prevent external access to the WPAR while you perform maintenance.

To start a system WPAR in maintenance mode, run the following command in the global environment:

startwpar -m wpar_name

Note: You cannot start WPARs that rely on NFS-mounted file systems in maintenance mode.
