Disabling Partitions

To disable a partition, unset its enabled attribute.

[node0]
P(part0):: unset enabled[node0] P(part0):: 

Now the partition can no longer be used.

Any jobs are running on a partition when it is disabled will continue to run. After disabling a partition, you should either wait for ay running jobs to terminate or stop them using the mpkill command. This is described in the Sun HPC Cluster Runtime Environment 1.0 User's Guide.
