Stopped state indicates that the operating system on the host stopped working.

Partitionable EPP image

Unknown

The Fabric Manager is unable to recognize the status of the partition image.

Running

The partition image is defined and the s-Par® partition chassis (processor cores, memory, ports) and LUN association with partition image is available. The partition mage is running.

Stopped

The partition image is defined and the s-Par® partition chassis (processor cores, memory, ports) and LUN association with partition image is available. The partition image is not running.

Enabled

The resources are allocated to the partition image.

Disabled

The resources are allocated to the partition image are freed up except LUN.

In Progress

Transition states of the partition image such as Activating, Deactivating, Starting, Stopping, and Inactive.

Inactive

The partition image is defined (LUN is allocated) and associated with a partition in the platform but does not have an s-Par® partition chassis (processor cores, memory, ports) association. The s-Par® partition chassis is available for use by another partition image.

Starting

An intermediate state between the stopped and running states of a partition image.

Stopping

An intermediary state between the running and stopped states of a partition image.

Deactivating

An intermediary state between the stopped and inactive states of the partition image. The s-Par® partition association of the partition image (LUN) with the partition chassis (processor cores, memory, ports) is released and s-Par® partition chassis is available for use by another partition image.

Activating

An intermediary state between the inactive and stopped states of the partition image. s-Par® association of the partition image (LUN) and the partition chassis (processor cores, memory, ports) is acquired and the s-Par® partition chassis is no longer available for use by another partition image.

Failed

Partition image is not usable and may be in a non-recoverable state.

You need to contact Unisys Support Center with the dump files so that the Unisys personnel can analyze the cause and help you resolve the issue.
