traveling standby

Question

Hi! I am planning to travel standby in shanghai, meaning I do not have a booked seat. Only if there are seats available on the flight, will I be able to board. I am travelled as a partner pass of the airline. Do you know what rules apply I do not make it on the flight and need to stay in airport to wait for the next flight?
