Example 4-4 Deactivating an Active Core (HP-UX)

>/usr/sbin/icapmodify -d 1

2 cores are intended to be active and are currently active.

NOTE: In Example 4-4, the core deactivation is instant (that is, does not require a reboot). To defer deactivation until the next reboot, use the -Doption with the command. For details, see icapmodify(1M).

The icapmodify command allows you to either deactivate cores with the -doption or to set the total number of active cores with the -soption. For example, the icapmodify -d 1 command deactivates 1 additional core in a partition. The icapmodify -s 2 command sets the total number of active cores in a partition to 2.
