The following commands (see Table 13) have been modified due to the
introduction of the dependent node:

Eprimary
Estart
Efence
Eunfence
Here is a more detailed description about the modifications:
•Eprimary
This command has been modified so that dependent nodes will not be
able to act as a Primary or Primary Backup node for the SP Switch in the
partition. The dependent node does not run the RS/6000 SP Switch codes
like standard RS/6000 SP nodes and therefore does not have the ability to
act as the Primary or Primary Backup node.
•Estart
This command functions as it does with normal nodes. It was enhanced to
support the depend node in the RS/6000 SP.
•Efence
This command functions as it does with normal nodes in the RS/6000 SP.
In addition, the dependent node can be fenced from the SP Switch with
autojoin like any other standard RS/6000 SP node.
•Eunfence
This command functions as it does with normal nodes in the RS/6000 SP.
In addition, the dependent node can rejoin the SP Switch network with this
command, if that node was previously removed from the switch network
due to failures or
Comment
The dependent node cannot be the Primary node.
The dependent Node depends on the Primary node to calculate the
routes.
