(-p# where # is the nPartition number). For example:

1. Shut down all applications and warn users. Follow the same procedures you use
to reboot an nPartition.
2. Issue the parremove -F -p# command to force-remove (-F) the local nPartition
(-p#, where # is the number of the local nPartition).
The local nPartition remains active following the parremove -F -p# command
until you perform a shutdown for reconfig to complete the removal.
As soon as possible proceed with the shutdown for reconfig because the server
Complex Profile will remain locked—and no other changes can occur—until the

for reconfig:
shutdown /s from Windows on the nPartition being deleted
reconfigreset from the EFI Shell for the nPartition
RR from the MP Command Menu for the server complex where the nPartition
