Partition Manager
(parMgr) Provides system administrators with a convenient GUI to configure and manage nPartitions on
HP server systems. Perform complex configuration tasks without having to remember commands

display, then select an action from a menu. You can use Partition Manager to perform the following
tasks: create, modify, and delete nPartitions; examine the nPartition configuration of a complex,
check the complex for potential configuration and hardware problems, and manage hardware
resources on the complex.
