- vPar machine is rebooting now, and it will take some time to come up.
Note: If vPar is already down or hung then use the vparstatus to check the status of the vPar and use commands like vparreset and vparboot to reset/startup the vPar.
# vparreset -p vPar_name [-h|-t] [-q] [-f]
# vparboot -p vPar_name
